👥 Upcoming Panel: The 21st Century Great Power Contest for Critical Resources (Nov 18, 2025)

From AI to Yttrium

From Globalization to Mobilization

As China and the US continue to go their separate ways, there are calls from the White House and policymakers to create self-sufficiency in US supply chains. China recently granted a one-year reprieve on rare earth exports to the US, but this promise is not written in stone. And a year is obviously not enough time to rebuild supply chains back to the US and its allies. How important is it for us to create resilient and diversified supply chains for energy, technology, and health care? How much will it cost—and how long will it really take? Will Australia and Japan link arms with the US?

We hope you will join our illuminating discussion with econVue experts and guests.
