CuraTEd Series
The TradeExperette CuraTEd series is our flagship virtual event series where we tap into our outstanding network of trade experts from across the world to capacitate truly unique conversations. As suggested by the name, these conversations are remarkably curated since we bring together experts from all across the spectrum; policymakers, implementers, academics, Ambassadors, consultants and private sector leaders to discuss pressing issues in trade. The events typically feature 3-4 prominent experts in one-hour long webinars in a frank, solution oriented conversation, with real world examples; all expertly steered by a weathered moderator.
Each episode is then summarized in a one page write up with clear and concise policy recommendations.
If you’d like to tap TradeExperettes unique network of experts, we are excited to offer a line of new partnership opportunities for these webinars on key topics related to the current state of global trade. Reach out to info@tradeexperettes.org with your request.

The aim of the TradeExperettes Road to Yaoundé webinar series is to equip negotiators, policymakers, and trade officials from Least Developed and developing countries - particularly trade negotiators in capitals and Geneva permanent missions - with the practical knowledge and tools needed to engage effectively in digital trade negotiations ahead of WTO MC14 (Yaoundé, 2026).
This series is based on the TradeExperettes, CuraTEd system of webinars/seminars with recordings and short written summary report, including clear policy recommendations, making possible for missions to share the learnings with colleagues in capitals.
Each session builds progressively — from understanding what digital trade is and how it is governed, to exploring lessons from policy missteps and the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in shaping the future of trade. The series will culminate in a hands-on, in-person training seminar focused on AI-supported negotiation simulation and scenario planning.
