Event Details
The relationship between the United States and China has undergone significant transformations over the past decade, influenced by geopolitical tensions, trade issues, and differing approaches to global governance. As the world's two largest economies, their interactions have profound implications for businesses operating in both markets and worldwide. A new U.S. administration has introduced more uncertainties.
Technology has become a central arena in U.S.-China relations, with both nations vying for leadership in key sectors such as artificial intelligence, telecommunications, and cybersecurity. In addition, U.S. has imposed restrictions on Chinese tech giants leading to an increased scrutiny of foreign investments in sensitive technologies. Businesses must navigate these complexities, adapting their strategies to comply with evolving regulations and mitigate risks associated with supply chain disruptions.
Today's U.S.-China relations present a complex tapestry of challenges and opportunities for businesses. The U.S. has adopted derisking -- and even decoupling in some instances in sourcing from China, leading to a rethink of supply chain worldwide. Despite the challenges, opportunities still exist for businesses willing to navigate the complexities of the U.S.-China relationship. The growing consumer market in China presents vast potential for American companies, particularly in sectors such as e-commerce, healthcare, and renewable energy. Conversely, Chinese enterprises are increasingly looking to expand into the U.S. market, seeking partnerships and investments in technology, finance, and real estate.
Join us for our China Conference 2025, where distinguished speakers will delve into the evolving landscape of business between China and the United States in the new U.S. Administration. This conference will explore the anticipated shifts in trade policies, diplomatic strategies, and economic interactions between the two countries; explore the implications of new restrictions imposed by both the U.S. and Chinese governments, and assess China's aspiration in technology and innovation leadership; and provide a comprehensive overview of the current business environment in China, highlighting emerging opportunities while addressing the obstacles.
