About the event: Please enjoy the launch event of the Indo-Pacific Policy Lab at the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies (FSI) at Stanford University. This new initiative within the Center for International Security and Cooperation (CISAC) is dedicated to creating and disseminating leading academic knowledge to inform national policymakers on Indo-Pacific security issues, building the next generation of regional security experts, and helping mobilize American industry and civil society for long-term competitiveness.
This launch event will bring together senior policymakers, scholars, and practitioners for a Keynote Address on May 14th and full-day program on May 15th on the most pressing strategic questions facing the United States and its allies in the Indo-Pacific. Through panel discussions and keynote conversation, participants will examine U.S. national security strategy toward China, the implications of deepening China-Russia alignment, and the broader global consequences of China’s expanding power and partnerships. In bringing these conversations together, the program will reflect the lab’s mission to connect rigorous academic research with urgent policy challenges and strengthen ties between academia and the broader policy community.
