During his lecture, Bo Li focused on several key challenges currently facing the WTO, including rule-making, dispute resolution, special and differential treatment, state-owned enterprises (SOEs), industrial subsidies, intellectual property rights, and digital economy. Li presented ways to potentially reform the WTO, and shared his insights in his capacity as, simultaneously, an economist, a lawyer, and also a former policy maker in Beijing.
