YCAPS was honored to have four of its volunteers join a by-invitation roundtable with Mr. Suman K. Bery, Hon’ble Vice Chairperson of NITI Aayog, held at the Embassy of India in Tokyo on 7 October. Representing YCAPS were Executive Director John Bradford, Senior Research Fellow Keizo Kitagawa, Council on Foreign Relations International Affairs Fellow Matt Finkle, and Professor Marie Lall. The discussion offered a valuable opportunity to exchange perspectives on India’s economic priorities, regional cooperation, and evolving Indo-Pacific strategies. YCAPS participants were grateful for the chance to engage directly with Mr. Bery and fellow thought leaders on advancing shared goals for stability and prosperity in the region.
