The initiative works with the U.S. government and private sector partners to advance U.S. economic competitiveness and U.S. national security, providing evidence-based analysis to inform effective decisionmaking amid increasing questions and tensions around the challenges and opportunities of global economic interdependence.
Research and analysis under this initiative is currently being conducted for these sponsors and funders, among others:
- U.S. Department of Defense

- U.S. Department of the Treasury
