With over 15 years of experience in both China and Washington, D.C., he is uniquely positioned to bridge complex trade, data, and regulatory challenges for U.S. and Chinese multinationals with global supply chains.\n\nWith nuanced understanding of China’s regulatory landscape, his China trade practice covers a broad spectrum of issues—including optimizing supply chains, building trade compliance programs, conducting internal audits and investigations, managing self-disclosures, advising on export controls, cross-border e-commerce, inspections and quarantine, foreign exchange control, product certification, and labeling. He also guides clients through challenges resulting from potential conflicts between U.S. sanctions and China’s Anti-Foreign Sanctions Law, Unreliable Entity List, and Blocking Statute. Multinational clients regularly call up Zhiwei for representation in customs audits and enforcement actions, including detentions and seizures. He has successfully defended clients in high-profile customs audit and investigation cases, including a primary case investigated directly under the supervision by China’s General Administration of Customs and an export control matter before China’s Ministry of Commerce.\n\nFor Chinese companies operating in or exporting to the U.S., Zhiwei provides strategic counsel on congressional investigations, CBP enforcement actions, supply chain compliance, U.S. country of origin planning, and other tariff and trade matters. With on-the-ground experience in Washington, D.C., he helps clients navigate the geopolitical complexities of the U.S.-China relationship, mitigating risks while identifying business opportunities.\n\nSince the enactment of China’s Cybersecurity Law in 2016, Zhiwei has advised leading technology and digital companies on cross-border data transfers, cybersecurity, data privacy, telecommunications, cloud computing, encryption, and other digital regulatory issues. His knowledge is particularly valuable in cross-border investigations and litigations, where trade and data regulations intersect.\n\nBefore joining Crowell & Moring, Zhiwei practiced at a global law firm in Los Angeles and Shanghai and at a leading Chinese customs law firm. He is a regular speaker on U.S.-China trade and regulatory issues.","f54529f8-bf5e-49b1-b73f-ead83a41ece1",{"id":276,"alt":18,"name":18,"focus":18,"title":18,"source":18,"filename":833,"copyright":18,"fieldtype":278,"meta_data":834,"is_external_url":280},"https://a.storyblok.com/f/333611/60cb4ee329/5291893-68136d03c79ba.png",{},"Crowell","Counsel","1692011","zhiwei-chen","events/speakers/zhiwei-chen",-2430,[],"b8f0eaa1-4c1f-4423-8d09-3f72e742aeda","2026-03-26T17:24:31.713Z",[],{"name":846,"created_at":847,"published_at":848,"updated_at":849,"id":850,"uuid":851,"content":852,"slug":861,"full_slug":862,"sort_by_date":276,"position":863,"tag_list":864,"is_startpage":280,"parent_id":289,"meta_data":276,"group_id":865,"first_published_at":866,"release_id":276,"lang":292,"path":276,"alternates":867,"default_full_slug":276,"translated_slugs":276,"_stopResolving":294},"Leigh Clarke","2026-03-26T17:24:33.736Z","2026-03-27T10:42:50.442Z","2026-03-27T10:42:50.454Z",159155297258951,"05e4009d-a2b9-4d51-bf00-62e838c12817",{"bio":853,"_uid":854,"image":855,"company":858,"component":282,"job_title":859,"swoogo_id":860},"Leigh has served as the Vice President of Government and Stakeholder Relations at E3 Lithium since 202X.

After starting out as a geologist, John took a chance by opening the first brewpub in Colorado. As a small business owner, he gained a deep understanding of the local community and the value of collaboration. John entered public service because he knew he could listen to the diverse array of Colorado voices and get things done. As Coloradoʼs U.S. Senator, John is committed to bringing people together to solve our countryʼs toughest problems. \n\nJohn was raised by a strong single mother after he lost his father to cancer when he was just eight years old. He remembers his father teaching him that if you can learn to laugh at something, it can never beat you. John has carried that lesson throughout his life. \n\nJohn started his career in Colorado as a geologist. After being laid off in the long recession of the mid-80ʼs, he opened the stateʼs first brewpub in a neglected warehouse district in Lower Downtown (LoDo) Denver. He and his partners started multiple businesses, renovating nearly a full block of LoDo warehouses in mixed-use developments that included 90 units of affordable housing. His company led the renovation efforts of more than a dozen historic buildings in cities across the Midwest. \n\nIn 2003, John was elected Mayor of Denver. As Mayor, he focused on bringing people together to get things done, just as heʼd done as an entrepreneur. He unified all 34 metro mayors to fund and build FasTracks, the most ambitious U.S. transit initiative in modern American history with 119 miles of new track. John made Denver the first large city to provide quality early childhood education for every 4-year old, initiated the most significant police reforms in the Cityʼs history, and opened one of the first offices of sustainability in the country. \n\nJohn served as Governor of Colorado from 2011 to 2019. During his tenure, Coloradoʼs economy recovered from ranking 40th in job creation during the Great Recession to become the number one economy in the country (U.S. News & World Report). As Governor, he expanded health care to half a million Coloradans, established climate pollution limits that served as a national model, and enacted commonsense gun safety measures. He also oversaw the creation of the first regulatory framework in the U.S. for the legalization of recreational marijuana, which has become the gold standard. \n\nJohn is honored to serve the people of Colorado in the U.S. Senate.

(TSX: ARA), a Toronto Stock Exchange listed company, is focused on building a vertically integrated supply chain for rare earths alloys used in permanent magnets. This strategy is supported by Aclara’s development of rare earth mineral resources hosted in ionic clay deposits, which contain high concentrations of the scarce heavy rare earths, providing the Company with a long-term, reliable source of these critical materials. The Company’s rare earth mineral resource development projects include the Carina Project in the State of Goiás, Brazil as its flagship project and the Penco Module in the Bio-Bio Region of Chile. Both projects feature Aclara’s patented technology named Circular Mineral Harvesting, which offers a sustainable and energy-efficient extraction process for rare earths from ionic clay deposits. The Circular Mineral Harvesting process has been designed to minimize the water consumption and overall environmental impact through recycling and circular economy principles.\nThrough its wholly-owned subsidiary, Aclara Technologies Inc., the Company is further enhancing its product value by developing a rare earths separation plant in the United States. This facility will process mixed rare earth carbonates sourced from Aclara’s mineral resource projects, separating them into pure individual rare earth oxides. Additionally, Aclara through a joint venture with CAP S.A., is advancing its alloy-making capabilities to convert these refined oxides into the alloys needed for fabricating permanent magnets.
