On March 24, Sasakawa USA launched a report addressing the rare metals critical to technologies that are driving economic growth and the green economy. This event brought together several leading experts and industry insiders to discuss Sasakawa USA’s new report on the challenges of identifying resource insecurities and developing strategies to ensure resilient resource supplies.

This report is based on a conference sponsored by Sasakawa USA and Stanford’s Shorenstein Asia-Pacific Research Center, the first of its kind, which brought together government, industry, and academic stakeholders in the United States and Japan to discuss the strategic and economic importance of rare metals.
