Nationalism, populism and tensions over global trade and immigration are on the rise. The United States has implemented new tariff and travel barriers. Canada, China and the EU are retaliating against U.S. trade moves. Brexit is gripping Europe. China and other countries are contemplating new barriers to foreign technology companies. Join startups, technology companies and community partners to explore what increased global tensions mean for startups, what it means to be Born Global in an age of growing nationalism, and how to survive a trade war.
