We will have a presentation from Asdal Advisory Group, an applied research firm focused on China/Taiwan risk for investors and corporations. It is critically important for executives across manufacturing and all U.S. industries to understand, regardless of whether or not another trade deal is signed with China, that decoupling is accelerating, and we have already entered the foothills of a new cold war with China. This presentation will present China’s view of the new world order, not what China wants the West to hear. This is an absolute must-attend event to understand the paradigm shift happening as U.S. leadership finally understands that our relationship with China will never be the same again.
ARMA is conducting a bi-weekly pulse survey of our members to better understand issues/opportunities around tariff/trade policy. This input allows ARMA to effectively message and communicate with our legislative representatives. Results from past studies can be found here.
