White House hosts inaugural Quad Investment and Technology Dialogue

The inaugural Quad Investment and Technology Dialogue held here this week saw discussions on investment opportunities in critical resources and emerging technologies to promote greater prosperity and security in the Indo-Pacific Region, the White House said on Wednesday.

The meeting held at the White House on Monday was addressed among others by Director of the National Economic Council Lael Brainard and Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo.

Senior administration officials and over 40 business executives from Quad countries attending the event discussed strategies to help make private capital available for increased, high-standard, cross-border investment between Australia, India, Japan, and the United States, the statement said.

Senior representatives from the Embassies of Australia, India, and Japan took part in the event. Following the meeting, the White House said, ''At today's Dialogue, public and private sector leaders discussed investment opportunities in critical resources and emerging technologies to promote greater prosperity and security in the Indo-Pacific Region.'' The Quad Investors Network (QUIN) was launched this May at the Quad Leaders' Summit in Hiroshima and serves as a network of investors and executives across Quad countries seeking to foster co-investment in critical and emerging technologies.
