US-Asia Technology Management Center

In this Zoom-only session, Frank Clark, CEO of PACFORCE, will provide an overview of how the U.S.–Japan security relationship has evolved in recent years. He will highlight the new opportunities this heightened focus on security is creating for startups in both Japan and the United States, and examine key challenges facing defense- and security-related ventures—such as export controls and public perception, particularly in Japan. We’ll also look at practical ideas and potential solutions for navigating these barriers. Dr. Richard Dasher, Director of US-ATMC, will serve as moderator.
