What is the current trade landscape in Asia-Pacific? What challenges are facing the U.S. as President Obama prepares for his trip to the region? What are the options for U.S. re-assertion of leadership in the region and their implications/opportunities for Taiwan? What are the prospects for the multilateral Doha Round? AmCham Taipei is honored to invite Peter Allgeier, former US Ambassador to the World Trade Organization (WTO) and current President of C&M International, to share his insight to the U.S. leadership role in the Asia-Pacific regional trade landscape. About the Speaker(s)
Peter Allgeier joined C&M International, Ltd. (CMI) as President in September 2009 after nearly three decades at the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR), where he was a negotiator on nearly every major U.S. trade initiative since the Carter Administration. C&M International is the international trade and investment consulting firm affiliated with Crowell & Moring LLP. During his career at USTR, Mr. Allgeier has conducted major negotiations with countries throughout Asia, Europe (including the former Soviet Union), the Middle East, and Latin America and the Caribbean, as well as multilateral negotiations in the United Nations, the World Trade Organization (WTO), and its predecessor organization, the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT). These negotiations have included: free trade agreements, elimination/reduction of foreign tariffs and non-tariff barriers on U.S. goods and services; bilateral investment treaties; improvements in foreign laws governing patents, trademarks and copyrights; government procurement; removal of foreign export subsidies; and treaties normalizing U.S. trade and investment relations with the countries of Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union. Mr. Allgeier graduated cum laude from Brown University, with an A.B. in international relations. He earned a Masters Degree in international relations from Johns Hopkins University, School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS). He has a Ph.D. in international economics from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. |
