Global conflict, local impacts
Rising tensions involving Iran are evolving beyond a regional issue, with growing implications for the global economy. Much of the concern centers on the Strait of Hormuz, a critical chokepoint through which nearly 20% of the world’s energy supply passes. Disruptions in this corridor can quickly affect shipping routes, energy prices, and supply chains — creating ripple effects for businesses and markets worldwide. As conditions continue to shift, companies and policymakers are facing increased uncertainty around inflation, trade flows, and overall economic stability.
Join us for a timely and strategic discussion with WTC Utah’s national security advisor, retired General Eric Strong. He will provide perspective on the geopolitical, economic, and security dimensions of this evolving situation.
This session will unpack current developments, outline potential risks to energy and supply chains, and offer insights to help organizations better understand and respond to both short-term disruptions and longer-term shifts in the global economy.
