- **Event Description**: Join NBR for an expert discussion on recent developments in U.S.-ROK technology and trade relations.About this EventThe U.S.-ROK technology and trade relationship represents a key component of the bilateral alliance and a central pillar of both countries’ economic and innovational strength. Total trade volumes exceed $230 billion, concentrating in strategically critical and high-tech sectors. Private tech sector cooperation compounds this strong trade relationship, with U.S. and Korean companies both playing major roles in the other country’s digital ecosystem. However, the bilateral trade and tech relationship also faces headwinds: Korean digital policies and competition enforcement against U.S. firms have raised persistent concerns from the Trump administration and U.S. Congress. Despite groundbreaking commitments—informed by NBR research—in the November 2025 Joint Fact Sheet, questions about implementation and concerns over new legislative proposals persist and have led to continued bilateral negotiations.Please join the National Bureau of Asian Research (NBR) in-person on Thursday, February 26 from 1:30 p.m.–3:00 p.m. for an expert discussion that will cover recent developments and share the findings of NBR’s ongoing research into U.S.-ROK technology and trade relations.Agenda1:30 p.m. – Welcome RemarksDoug Strub, Senior Director, Research and Programs, The National Bureau of Asian Research (NBR)1:40 p.m. – Panel DiscussionJonathon Marek, Assistant Director, Technology and Geoeconomic Affairs, NBR (moderator)Tami Overby, Partner, DGA Group; Advisor, NBRElissa Alben, Vice President, Global Affairs, U.S. and Canada, NetflixNigel Cory, Director, Digital, Trade, and Technology Policy, Crowell Global Advisors; Nonresident Fellow, NBR3:00 p.m. – Event concludesSpeakersTami Overby is a Partner at DGA Group Government Relations, where she advises clients on Asian investment and trade matters.
