We are pleased to announce the IX USISPF Leadership Summit, on Monday, June 29, 2026, in Washington, D.C.
This year, as we celebrate America@250, we will bring together leaders from government, industry, policy, diplomacy, academia, and the media to advance the U.S.-India strategic partnership at a pivotal moment in global affairs.
USISPF is also honored to welcome envoys, Ambassador Sergio Gor and Ambassador Vinay Kwatra, whose leadership continues to strengthen diplomatic ties between Washington and New Delhi. USISPF is also delighted to welcome Ambassador Mark D. Wiseman, Ambassador of Canada to the United States.
The Summit will feature a fireside chat with Jacob Helberg, United States Under Secretary of State for Economic Growth, Energy, and the Environment and a special address by Congressman Ro Khanna (CA-17). USISPF Board Members will also participate in a closed-door discussion with Ambassador Jamieson Greer, United States Trade Representative, as the timely discussion will be focused on Ambassador Greer’s return to the United States and updates on advancing the trade discussions as both countries race towards adding the final touches of an impending interim trade agreement.
We are honored to recognize three distinguished leaders with the USISPF Global Leadership Award for their contributions to strengthening economic and strategic ties among the United States, India, and Canada:
In addition, Senator Steve Daines and Senator Mark Warner will receive the USISPF Distinguished Public Service Award for their contributions to strengthening the U.S.-India strategic and economic partnership.
Join us for an evening of celebrating America@250 and advance the bilateral relationship.
