Technology is blurring the lines between online and offline, between local and global commerce as worldwide, consumers increasingly shop online and local merchants meet global demand.  Sustainable growth opportunities emerge as we break down geographical barriers, build collaborative platforms, and challenge the traditional commerce model.

eBay and Pay Pal, together with Facebook and the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce, are bringing together leading thinkers for a provocative global debate about how technology, smart policy making, and commerce can create sustainable growth.  The debate will feature speakers from industry, academics and politics moderated by Maria Rankka, CEO of the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce and introduced by Dr. Ewa  Björling, Swedish Ministry for Trade.  The debate will take place in Stockholm, Sweden, on September 21, 2012.
