Episode 12 – In this episode, Redefining Trade is joined by Arnold Jorge, CEO of the Export Council of Australia. Arnold and host Peter Foyston discuss the biggest challenges Australian exporters are facing in the face of Covid-19. Arnold provides some insights into the formation of AUKUS (a trilateral security pact between Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States for the Indo-Pacific region), and Arnold provides some insights into how exporters are coping with supply chain and shipping disruptions.

We finish with our new three-by-three segment where Peter has three quick fire questions for Arnold.

1. Who is leading the race in digitalised trade right now - Australia or New Zealand?

2. Is the golden age of trade is still in front of us?

3. By 2030, we will look back on paper-based trade the same way we do now at hard-copy telephone books, true or false?
