We've just concluded three days of fantastic presentations and discussions in the course of the first U.S.-China Futures Summit (@YPFP_USCFP), which was the culmination of the work of series of task forces launched last summer. ypfp.org/u-s-china-futu…

Thanks so much to the @ypfp team, especially @joshuamarcuse! I've appreciated the opportunity to serve on the Steering Committee, along with @Ali_Wyne, @KKoleski, @chenniferann, and @1AlexanderTitus. I've learned so much from my colleagues and fellow participants along the way.

Our task forces tackled topics including geopolitical competition and international institutions, military-civil fusion and defense competition, technology governance, the bioeconomy, next-generation telecommunications, and opportunities to revitalize America going forward.

So follow @YPFP_USCFP, and keep an eye out for ideas, writing, and programming that will be coming up over the next couple of months, and we're excited to share outcomes of our work and this process with you.

U.S.-China Futures is a start-up project and an experiment that has been challenging to implement on several fronts, including in the midst of the pandemic. We've learned a lot and are looking forward to improving the program and continuing the conversation going forward.

And finally, thank you, in particular, to @merrittogle for organizing and helping us convene this initiative and organize the summit! Her contributions have been absolutely invaluable to the success of the program.
