Event Details

November 13, 2024 10:00 AM – 12:30 PM ET
KEI Conference Facility and YouTube
AUKUS Cyber Security Defense Industry Korea Policy Space

KEI is pleased to host a panel focused on new and evolving areas of US-ROK alliance cooperation. Our expert panelists will present working papers focused on the areas of cyber, space, and defense industrial cooperation, which will later be published in the fall 2024 issue of KEI’s flagship journal, Korea Policy.

The fall issue is motivated by the broadening and deepening of the alliance into what Presidents Joe Biden and Yoon Suk Yeol in 2023 called a strategic economic and technology partnership and global comprehensive strategic alliance. The issue will explore an array of new and emerging areas of alliance cooperation by charting leader-level commitments; taking stock of progress made; offering realistic, viable, and mutually beneficial paths for further progress; and highlighting various challenges and obstacles that could stand in the way.

The two-part, hybrid panel event will run from 10:00AM-12:30PM EST at KEI’s office and be livestreamed on KEI’s YouTube channel.
