Much of current world trade is seen in containers, while in 2020 most of it will be in packages, he said.
"Today, we see made in China, made in the U.S., made in Switzerland. In 2030 we will see made in the Internet," said Ma to loud applause.
According to the WTO head, new technologies are emerging, while environmental risks are growing that are challenging the way the world thinks about trade.
"If the proper synergies are in place, particularly regarding public policies, by 2030 the technological revolution could help fuel additional trade growth of around 30 percentage points," said Azevedo.
"So we have to ask -- is the global trading system that we have today equipped for that new environment?"
The WTO chief stressed he believes that the fundamental principles still apply, as enshrined in the WTO agreements: "the importance of clear rules, openness, cooperation, and non-discrimination."
