Forum Summary

Over recent years, the competition for technological supremacy between the US and China has escalated, highlighting the growing significance of economic security and critical emerging technologies. In this era defined by rapid technological innovation and geopolitical shifts, KISTEP and CSIS recognize the critical importance of fostering collaboration and strategic dialogue to address emerging challenges and capitalize on opportunities.


This forum will bring together a diverse array of stakeholders including policymakers, industry leaders, academics, and experts for in-depth discussions on key issues at the nexus of economic security and critical emerging technologies. By fostering an inclusive and collaborative environment, the forum seeks to identify common challenges and explore innovative solutions to enhance economic security and technological cooperation. In addition, the forum will delve into cooperation strategies aimed at strengthening alliances and partnerships in the face of evolving geopolitical dynamics and technological disruptions. Participants will have the opportunity to share best practices, draw from lessons learned, and explore avenues for enhanced cooperation on critical emerging technologies and economic security. We envision this forum as a platform for sharing the future vision for ROK-US alliance and further expanding the scope of cooperation between the two nations.
