In this episode we’re joined by Tim Stratford, managing partner of law firm Covington a Burling’s Beijing office, and Chris Adams, senior advisor at Covington a Burling. Both have previously held high-level government positions, with Stratford serving as Assistant U.S.-Trade Representative and Adams as Senior Coordinator for China Affairs at the Treasury Department, where he led the highest-level U.S.-China economic policy dialogues. In this episode we discuss recent U.S.-China trade tensions, what can be done to improve trade relations, and what U.S. businesses in China should be doing to minimize any associated negative impact. We’re also joined by co-host Ian Driscoll, communications director at AmCham Shanghai.
