Join us for an in-person roundtable with Rep. Akihisa Shiozaki, a National Diet member from the Liberal Democratic Party and one of Japan's leading policy voices on digital issues. As Secretary General of the LDP’s “Evolution and Implementation of AI” Project Team, he drafted the party’s AI White Paper released earlier this year. He also leads the LDP’s “web3” Project Team, which published a white paper in April that included recommendations for boosting the crypto industry in Japan.

Rep. Shiozaki will discuss Japan's approach to AI and cryptocurrency governance, the major policy challenges he encounters in his work, and the future of these two technologies. He can also provide his thoughts on the latest developments in Japan’s political landscape. This event will be held in-person at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
