Economic security and tech competition in 2025 | SISF 2024

From the CHIPS & Science Act to the Inflation Reduction Act, the era of US industry policy is upon us.
Experts explore the new Trump administration’s approach to economic statecraft and security, especially in relation to allies and partners. How will trade policies and “friend shoring” evolve? What role will technology and energy play in shaping international relations?
The panel:
Matthew Turpin, Former US National Security Council Director for China
Kristen Silverberg, President and COO, Business Roundtable and Former US Ambassador to the European Union
Katherine Mansted, Director of Cyber Intelligence and Public Policy, CyberCX
Moderated by: Hayley Channer, Director, Economic Security, United States Studies Centre
About the Forum:
Two weeks after the US elected its next president, the United States Studies Centre hosted its flagship conference, the Sydney International Strategy Forum - bringing together key national security strategists from the Biden-Harris and Trump-Pence administrations, along with other experts and senior policymakers from the United States, Australia, Japan, Korea and elsewhere - to assess the election outcome and its impact on the world.
The Sydney International Strategy Forum provided a deep dive into how the new Trump administration will address challenges such as China’s rising influence, regional security architecture, and economic integration in the Indo-Pacific. In exploring the administration's multilateral and alliance strategies, particularly in the context of emerging threats and strategic competition in the region, the event provided unrivalled insight into the next steps on AUKUS and defence cooperation, US trade policy and the decoupling debate.
