Ikenson (pictured) joins with more than 30 years' experience in international trade and investment policy, and according to the company is a renowned authority on globalization, manufacturing, supply chains, technology, and the rules-based trading system. He spent over twenty years as a scholar at the Cato Institute, during which time he wrote dozens of studies and papers and provided expert testimony to Congressional committees, federal regulators and state agencies.
