The United States-India partnership has emerged as one of the most pivotal strategic alliances of the 21st century. Washington and New Delhi share key interests across sectors like trade, defense, climate, technology, and healthcare, fostering a bipartisan relationship that has only strengthened in both multilateral settings like the G20 and in regional alliances like the Indo-Pacific Quadrilateral Security Dialogue (Quad) and I2U2 (India, Israel, the UAE, and the United States). Together with Australia and Japan, the U.S. and India promote a shared vision of a free and open Indo-Pacific, dedicated to a rules-based international order and the democratic values central to each nation’s identity.

With increasing challenges posed by Beijing’s actions in the South China Sea, the importance of safeguarding the Indo-Pacific with like-minded partners has grown. USISPF’s Indo-Pacific Security Dialogues aims to address this through a monthly series of webinars focused on Indo-Pacific security issues and the U.S.-India geopolitical alliance. Each session will explore the Quad’s strategic priorities, the Indo-Pacific’s significance, and areas of convergence between government and business across this dynamic region. These dialogues will feature panels of experts, including think tank specialists, journalists, academics, and former government officials now in the private sector, providing deep insights into this critical international relationship.
