Chair on India and Emerging Asia Economics
Unlocking the full potential of U.S. partnerships with India and Asia
The CSIS Chair on India and Emerging Asia Economics aims to unlock the full potential of U.S. partnerships with India and the broader Asia region. While continuing to lead the Center’s work on India, the Chair has expanded to include emerging economies across Asia, fostering U.S. economic security, economic development, and deepening business engagement between these countries and the United States. We remain the leading authority on state-level political-economic issues in India and have spearheaded multiple funded projects to enhance subnational engagement. We work towards building stronger ties between Indian policymakers and other nations in the Global South. Richard Rossow, is a senior adviser at CSIS, and the Chair on India and Emerging Asia Economics.
