In this ever-changing world, it’s important that we speak out when the rules-based int’l order is being challenged. I’m glad to have met @ChrisCoons & @SenatorHassan, two like-minded friends who share the same determination to promote IPR protection & our shared values.
I believe in a just, open, & inclusive #Taiwan. I’m grateful to my colleagues who come from diverse backgrounds & work with me to create a country in which individual differences are respected, valued, & celebrated. Thanks @HarvardBiz for the recognition. twitter.com/HarvardBiz/sta…
