Global issues such as climate change, energy pollution, and resource scarcity have closely linked the fate of all humanity. In-depth cooperation and communication across industries and borders are key to solving these complex problems. Against this backdrop, the U.S.-Asia Sustainable Development Foundation has organized a series of summit events, creating a cross-border cooperation platform that encompasses multiple dimensions such as academia, technology, business, and social policy. These efforts aim to advance the common goal of sustainable development worldwide.

This April, we successfully hosted the inaugural U.S.-Asia Sustainable Development Summit at Harvard University. The summit attracted many experts and leaders from academia, industry, and policymaking, fostering cutting-edge exchanges and cooperation between industry and academia. Through a series of panel discussions, workshops, and lectures, participants delved into the latest research findings and practical experiences in the field of sustainable development. The summit received positive feedback from various sectors and laid a solid foundation for future interdisciplinary cooperation.

On September 25th, we will meet again at Harvard for the second major summit of the year, continuing our in-depth discussions with senior experts on cutting-edge topics in sustainable development. This summit will focus on the impact of AI on the environment, climate change, clean energy technologies, and green investments, exploring the latest advancements in these areas and how they can promote environmental protection, energy transformation, and sustainable production and consumption patterns. The summit will feature a series of roundtable discussions, results announcements, and expert lectures, showcasing the results of Sino-American cooperation in the field of climate change, analyzing the environmental impact of artificial intelligence, and discussing how green financial innovation can promote sustainable development.

Through this summit, we aim to connect industry, academia, the financial sector, and policymakers from the U.S. and Asia to provide a platform for exploring solutions to global environmental challenges. If you are passionate about sustainable development, looking forward to addressing climate change, and keen to learn about the latest trends in energy conservation and green investments, we warmly invite you to stay tuned for UASDF news and participate in the summit to become part of driving a green future!
