Season 3 Episode 4 - My guest is Suja Rishikesh Mavroidis, Director of the Market Access Division at the World Trade Organization (WTO). Suja is a fascinating individual who has been working in international trade since the GATT Secretariat days. In our conversation, she talks about having a very International upbringing and how that shaped her into eventually getting a job at the GATT Secretariat.

She tells us how she experienced the GATT transition to the WTO and how International Trade has evolved over the years. Our conversation may become a bit technical, but only because Market Access is a very technical subject. She concludes our conversation with how she views the WTO adapting to some of the changes the world has seen during the last year. It is a very insightful conversation. I hope you enjoy it.
