CNBC CEO Council — Virtual Roundtable: Behind the Headlines: The Future of US-China Relations and the Disney Decision
As we start a new quarter, join fellow CEO Council members and special guests for a roundtable discussion that tackles two of the biggest headlines in the business world. First: China is courting American CEOs. A meeting last week between President Xi Jinping and the leaders of Qualcomm, FedEx, Chubb and more than a dozen other firms has analysts wondering if China is trying to stop American companies from shifting their investments to other parts of the world, even as its relationship with the US government remains tenuous. Council on Foreign Relations President Emeritus and veteran diplomat Richard Haass and Strategy Risks CEO and Founder Isaac Stone Fish will help lead the discussion on the latest turn in US-China relations. ALSO: The battle for the future of Disney is at stake this week at the company’s shareholder meeting. CNBC Contributor, New York Times reporter and author of “Disney War”, Jim Stewart, joins us to analyze the meeting, the Iger succession plan, and how the company will steer itself through the tumult.

Key Points
- A Chinese government entity, Volt Typhoon, has recently raised alarm bells within the United States government. Running TTPs within the company and having EDR capability when logging every network connection are essential actions for executives to take to try and combat this.
- Countries like China and Russia, and more recently Iran, have been developing and enhancing their technology efforts for years. Thinking a couple years ahead of their actions is an effective preventative measure.
- Technical and cyber threats nearing the election are always a main concern, but physical threats to election workers have increasingly become an issue.
- Identity, asset, and vulnerability management are at the top of the list for defense strategies.
- There is no right solution to how to safely navigate generative AI. Having discussion with peers and becoming aware of where and how the technology is being used is the best technique companies can follow.
