What the U.S.- China Tech Wars Mean For Main Street
Wed, May 1st, 2019
Washington, DC
Online registration for this event is now closed. Watch the livestream at 12:00 P.M.
The U.S.-China tariff war may soon conclude. But the “trade war” may give way to a “tech war” as regulators and firms battle over emerging technologies, standards, and whether America or China will dominate the industries of the future. But outside Washington, the relationship between Chinese and American business is complex and changing fast.
Join Carnegie for a conversation with former Michigan Governor Rick Snyder, who has seen this relationship from three sides: as the chairman of Gateway computers, as a venture capitalist, and as the Republican governor of Michigan, where he led an innovative relationship with China as Michigan's economy became increasingly defined by technology. In this timely conversation, Snyder will discuss America’s technology interaction with China from the inside out.
This event inaugurates a new stream of work at Carnegie on the connections in Asia between local communities and global trends.
