Join the Japan Society in New York City for this in-person event exploring energy and economic security and U.S-Japan cooperation.
The energy landscape, which is crucial to our daily lives, industries and economic growth, is undergoing significant changes. Technological innovations are accelerating the transition to renewable energy, yet increasing geopolitical risks are causing market instability. Additionally, the rise of AI and data centers is driving a surge in electricity demand, making energy security an urgent priority for nations. At a recent summit in Tokyo President Trump and Prime Minister Takaichi affirmed their commitment to take further steps for a new golden age of the U.S.-Japan alliance. How can our two countries deepen their collaboration to address shared challenges and maximize mutual benefits? In this program, experts from both countries will explore the significance of energy and economic security, assess the current energy landscape, and highlight opportunities for deeper U.S.-Japan cooperation to secure a stable energy future.
