The new Allies and Partners Poll 2024 report from the US Studies Centre offers valuable perspectives on the geopolitical landscape that could significantly impact your business strategies.
Here are three key takeaways:
1. There’s a shift towards domestic manufacturing and technology
The report indicates strong public support for prioritising domestic manufacturing and technology development across Australia, the United States, and Japan.
Your business may need to consider potential supply chain reshoring and prepare for stricter regulations, particularly in emerging technologies like AI.
2. Australians prefer a nuanced approach to China
While concerns about China persist, Australians are much more open to friendly and nuanced relations with China than other surveyed countries.
Your business’ geopolitics strategy should take a balanced approach to preparing for disruption to its value chain.
3. There is greater uncertainty about US leadership and alliances
The report highlights ongoing concerns about potential changes in US leadership and their impact on international alliances.
This uncertainty underscores the need for robust scenario planning in your business strategies.
