EVENT: South Korea is at a crossroads in its approach to #regulating its burgeoning #digital markets. Join ITIF on Wednesday, November 13 from 7:00 PM - 8:00 PM EST (Thursday, November 14 from 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM KST) for an #expert panel discussion on how South Korea’s #regulatory choices will shape its future as a #global #tech leader, and what the broader implications will be for its strategic positioning in the U.S.-China rivalry.

This decision will have consequences for South Korea’s overall #competitiveness in an increasingly unstable #geopolitical environment, and for its relationship with the United States, which has introduced proposals to counter #Korean digital regulations targeting U.S. #technology firms.

ITIF, alongside leading organizations, calls on the EU to prioritize intellectual property rights (IPR) as a cornerstone for innovation and resilience. Protecting IP fuels Europe’s creative and tech sectors—from cutting-edge technology to music, fashion, and film—driving global influence and economic strength. A robust IP framework will reward risk, attract investment, and secure Europe’s leadership in the global innovation landscape. Let’s support policies that keep Europe a top choice for creators, inventors, and investors! #ip4innovation https://ip4innovation.eu/

EVENT: Join us next Tuesday, November 19 at the Capitol Visitors Center (HVC-200) for a #live event exploring how the United States can take advantage of opportunities to develop #cleaner industries that are more globally #competitive. Featured remarks from Rep. Chrissy Houlahan (PA-06) and Avi Shultz (U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)). Lunch will be provided for all in-person attendees.

Chrissy Houlahan (PA-06) - Director Avi Shultz, U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)) - Robin Gaster, Information Technology and Innovation Foundation - Sharon Nolen, P.E., CEM, Eastman - Ed Rightor, Rightor Consulting - Sasha Stashwick, Antora Energy Register today: https://lnkd.in/gWChPikg Background: Efforts to #decarbonize heavy #industries such as ammonia, cement, steel, and chemicals are gathering steam in the United States and elsewhere. But eliminating the enormous #greenhouse gas #emissions from these industries will require much more than simply substituting clean #fuels. Decarbonization will often require substantially retooling and fundamentally redesigning an industry. That in turn will likely affect the state of #competition, sometimes dramatically, as new #technologies and processes upset companies that are currently dominant players, opening doors for new entrants. Which industries and sectors are the ripest targets for #green transitions? What will those transitions entail? And how can #policymakers help #US #companies capitalize on these opportunities instead of being left behind? #techpolicy #capitolhill #cleanenergy #innovation
