WACC Global Cafe Conversation Club 
Join us for the first gathering of WACC’s Global Cafe Conversation Club – the Council’s version of a “book club.” You’ll read two articles on global issues from different viewpoints, discuss them with your peers, and engage with the world from your own home!

For our inaugural meeting, we will discuss the ways in which COVID-19 has affected the global economy and what future trends might occur.

This discussion will be led by LJ Stambuk, WACC President & CEO, and economic scholar. In preparation, please read the following two articles:

  1. “The Global Economic Outlook During the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Changed World” published by The World Bank on June 9th – Read
  2. “Even with talk of a new Cold War, Chinese companies should seek stronger economic ties in the US” published by Edward Tse and Thomas W. Pauken II in the South China Morning Post on June 11th – Read
