On August 9, 2023, US President Biden signed issued a long-awaited Executive Order​ (EO) on Outbound Investment restrictions to China. This EO is meant to restrict US firms from investing in "dual use" technologies and technology research and development that could harm the US national security. The EO is now in a period of public comment where businesses and concerned parties may submit comments to the government on the details of the order.

The US Embassy's Minister Counselor for Economic Affairs Colin Guest is pleased to offer a briefing and Q&A period to AmCham China members interested in furthering their understanding of the EO.
