Trade, Investment, & Innovation

trade banner

ASPI explores the core and emerging issues surrounding the spheres of trade, investment, and innovation, drawing on diverse perspectives from both Asia and the United States. We prioritize critical areas such as regional economic integration, shifting supply chains, and the advancement of emerging female leaders. In addition to traditional trade issues, we tackle next-generation challenges encompassing digital trade, economic security, climate change, and economic inclusion. Our approach considers a broad spectrum of factors, from diplomacy and security to sustainability. With the goal to decisively shape critical policy debates, we aim to contribute meaningful solutions that will guide the future direction of the Indo-Pacific economic and trade landscape.
