Economic security in a turbulent world | Welcome and address by Gina Raimondo, Secretary of Commerce

On 19 and 20 June 2024, the United States Studies Centre hosted a major international conference in Sydney spotlighting the search for “economic security in a turbulent world”. Over a day and a half, the conference brought together leading policymakers, business executives, and independent experts from around the world to discuss arguably the defining economic policy debate of our age – how to reconcile security and prosperity in an era of strategic competition and economic interdependence.

USSC CEO Dr Michael Green provided welcoming remarks for the conference. Gina Raimondo, US Secretary of Commerce, then provided remarks via video.
