U of T Alumni | 21st Century Geoeconomics: Geopolitics, Trade, and Artificial Intelligence

Join U of T for a presentation by Professor Janice Stein to explore how trade policy and AI are fusing economics and security into a new architecture—”geoeconomics”—that will define the next two decades for Canada.

Economics and security are now joined in ways that are creating new challenges and contradictions. Trade decisions have security consequences, and artificial intelligence has major implications for economics and security.
