Why India, China & America?
Of the world’s top ten economies, India, China and the US:
- Constitute roughly 70% of the total population
- Represent about three-quarters of the top three economies’ GDP
- Present the largest markets in the world
- Will be the largest resource consumers
- Will raise issues on environment and sustainability
- Are going to shape the future geo-political landscape
This is the new triad power replacing the old triad power of Japan, Europe and the USA — and it needs an active catalyst like the ICA Institute to create harmonious relationships that generate economic growth.
The Strategic Impact of India and the New World Order
Vision
The India-China-America (ICA) Institute was founded in 2005 and is a registered 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization. ICA Institute provides a non-partisan platform to identify and drive synergies between India, China, and America in the areas of the emerging digital economy, economic growth, and alignment of public policies for the benefit of people.
Mission
The mission of the India-China-America (ICA) Institute is to foster greater economic, social, and geopolitical cooperation and collaboration among the three largest consumer economies of the world. The trilateral relationship between India, China, and America will shape the new world order in the digital economy just as the old triad power of Western Europe, Japan, and America shaped the industrial economy.
ICA Institute invites academic scholars, policymakers and world thought leaders to contribute their ideas, research papers, and conferences on economic, social, and political cooperation and collaboration between India, China, and America.
