Preface: 4th International Conference on World Trade and Economic Development (WTED 2023)

Abstract

We want to present the 2023 4th International Conference on World Trade and Economic Development (WTED 2023) held in Hangzhou, China during June 24-25, 2023. This conference was held both on-site and online. In general, there are two sessions, namely plenary and parallel. The plenary session was given to three keynote speakers, which ends with a Q&A session. Parallel session is for authors who present their papers and is carried out in four groups.
 As a scientific forum, the WTED 2023 was attended by 97 participants from researcher, scholar, students, teachers, engineers, and practitioners who participate either as presenters or as participants. The main aim of this conference is to share ideas and knowledge and build collaboration with each other. We received many papers that will be selected to be published with the scope of world trade, economic development, and related area. In this volume, we accept a small number of papers for publication after meeting the scope, checking originality, and performing peer review.
 We are hoping that this event will become a foothold of thinking in welcoming global developments. The organizing and editorial committee of WTED 2023 hopes you enjoy reading this volume. Besides, we would like to fully respect keynote speakers and all the presenters for providing their valuable contributions for this proceeding and the reviewers for their constructive recommendations to improve the presented articles. We, on behalf of the committee, would like to thank all parties for their participation in supporting this publication.
