David Livingston spoke at the World Shale Oil and Gas Summit, where he addressed the outlook for unconventional hydrocarbons in Asia, the need to fill data and policy gaps, as well as the geopolitical implications of increasing unconventional oil production in the Asia-Pacific region. He later participated in a panel with government officials from Australia, China, and India to discuss these issues as applied to individual country cases.

Chinese biotech companies have been on the receiving end of U.S. economic coercion. Yet their responses have differed significantly because firm and state interests are not uniformly aligned.

- China’s Energy Security Doesn’t Run Through Hormuz but Through the Electrification of EverythingCommentary
