As the role of global trade becomes increasingly important to the world’s economies, JETRO Los Angeles and the USC Marshall School of Business are co-sponsoring the Asia Pacic Economic Integration Forum.

The seminar will discuss the many opportunities, challenges and difficulties facing business and political leaders in Asia and the United States as they strive to further integrate and consolidate bilateral trade relationships through increased
cooperation and alliances.

Keynote speaker Mr. Hiroyuki Ishige, Chairman of JETRO and other featured speakers and panel discussion members will give their informed assessment of the future role of trade agreements, greater regional integration and the prospects of the passage of TPP and its effect on member nations.

As the passage of TPP draws increasing interest and controversy in the U.S., this Forum will also give the perspective of Japan and other ASEAN nations affected by TPP and also the lurking influence of China in TPP negotiations and regional collaboration.

Speakers, drawn from both the private and public sectors, government officials and business leaders, will share their views on the importance of the TPP and the roles that
Japan and the U.S. will play in the future of Asian economic development.
