Two Hinrich Foundation Global Trade Leader Scholarships valued at $28,000 each are available annually to executives who are focused on trade careers in Asia.
“Mutually beneficial international trade plays a powerful role in driving economic growth.” said Alex Boome, Program Director of the Hinrich Foundation. “In order for trade to be sustainable, it must balance the environmental and societal imperatives with economic benefits.
