This is hard to take and a great loss. But Mike Long's work and ideas will be with us for a very long time. I'm no expert, and I only knew Mike personally in the last two or three years, but here are just a few of the many key things he did.

Mike Long was a fantastic person, an incredible scholar, and a good friend and supporter of SLB. We were so lucky to get to work with him and we will miss him greatly. Our deepest condolences to his family and friends right now.

Schrödinger’s trade negotiations, in which WTO terms are both good and bad. Good news about the soy sauce though 🤦♂️
Department for Business and Trade@biztradegovuk
To clarify: thanks to the UK-Japan trade deal, soya sauce will be cheaper than it otherwise would be under WTO terms, on which we would be trading with Japan from 1 Jan if we had not secured the UK-Japan trade deal.
