Event Description:
Please join the Global Taiwan Institute (GTI) at our 2025 annual symposium, which will feature leading policy experts offering their insights on a broad range of policy issues impacting US-Taiwan relations. The event, taking place over the course of a full day, in-person session in Washington DC, will be organized around four engaging panel discussions on a range of challenges and opportunities facing the United States and Taiwan as they enhance a global partnership for peace and security.
As GTI’s flagship event, the symposium is an annual forum that convenes leading experts on US-Taiwan policy to discuss current challenges and propose potential future solutions. At this year’s event, our panels will cover four broad themes: policy trends in Washington, Taipei, and Beijing; Taiwan’s international partnerships; trade and technology; and defense and security. We will also feature distinguished keynote speakers from the governments of both the United States and Taiwan.
We will release a detailed agenda soon—and we invite you to continue to check our website and social media as we confirm and update our program and list of speakers. Public participation will be welcome, and questions for the panels may either be sent by e-mail to contact@globaltaiwan.org or through the chat function on the YouTube page.
Doors will open at 8:00 AM on the day of the event, and the event will begin at 8:30 AM. If you plan on attending in-person, please RSVP here by September 30, as seating is limited. Please only register if you would like to attend in-person. Breakfast and lunch will be provided. Please direct any questions to Senior Programs Manager Adrienne Wu at awu@globaltaiwan.org.
The event will also be broadcast live on our website and on YouTube beginning at 8:30 AM.
