Is the West really slipping? Data suggests that China and India are eclipsing America for economic dominance.
About this Event

Is the West really slipping? As China challenges America for economic dominance and India rapidly rises, the global balance of power is shifting before our eyes.

Join Sir Vince Cable, former UK Business Secretary and veteran economist, for a live conversation on his new book Eclipsing the West: China, India and the Forging of a New World. Drawing on decades of global insight and data, Cable reveals how the rise of two Asian “superstates” - China already rivaling the US, and India poised to follow - will reshape geopolitics, trade, and climate action.

This isn’t just theory - it’s a timely exploration of:

  • Why China’s strategic long-game matters more than ever and what it means for Western economies .
  • How India’s meteoric ascent could shift the global order by mid-century.
  • The urgent implications for commerce, law, technology and collective efforts like climate change mitigation.

Cable combines authoritative analysis, backed by his government experience and rigorous economist’s eye, with compelling storytelling. If today’s headlines on the US-China rivalry have caught your eye, this talk will deepen your understanding and spark essential questions about the future of global leadership.

What you can expect:

  • A sharper, data-driven view of how China and India are rebalancing world power.
  • Insight into how Western economies and policies must adapt - especially in areas like trade, tech, and sustainability.
  • A roadmap for business leaders, policymakers, and engaged citizens preparing for a truly multipolar world.
