*Event Description *
While North Korea's foreign policy intricately intertwines with its
internal economic dynamics, this crucial aspect often eludes comprehensive
analysis within discussions on the country's economic policy. There exists
a notable gap in understanding how Pyongyang's foreign policy not only
shapes but is also shaped by its economic strategies. Bridging this gap by
establishing clear linkages is essential for policymakers, providing
valuable insights as they explore policy options for North Korea. This
exploration becomes particularly pertinent in evaluating which economic
incentives may prove effective (or not) when North Korea decides to rejoin
the negotiating table. The 2023 North Korea Economic Forum Conference aims
to delve deeply into this unexplored territory. Drawing from a diverse
array of academic disciplines and subject-matter
specializations, the two-day conference will cover North Korea's science
and technology policy, trademarks, cryptocurrency theft, and semiconductor
industry.

*North Korea Economic Forum Background*
The North Korea Economic Forum (NKEF) is part of the policy program at the
George Washington University's Institute for Korean Studies (GWIKS). The
Forum aims to promote the understanding of North Korean economic issues,
distribute the well-balanced, deeply touched, and multi-dimensionally
explored pictures of North Korean economy and to expand the network among
the various North Korean economy watchers. The Forum is mostly a closed and
off-the-record meeting where participants can freely and seriously discuss
the critical issues. Mr. William Brown is currently the chair of the NKEF
and is leading the meetings. It also organizes special conferences made
public throughout the academic year. The Forum is made possible by a
generous grant provided by the KDI School of Public Policy and Management.

*This event is on the record and open to the public. *
Founded in the year 2016, the GW Institute for Korean Studies (GWIKS) is a
university wide Institute housed in the Elliott School of International
Affairs at the George Washington University. The establishment of the GWIKS
in 2016 was made possible by a generous grant from the Academy of Korean
Studies (AKS). The mission of GWIKS is to consolidate, strengthen, and grow
the existing Korean studies program at GW, and more generally in the
greater D.C. area and beyond. The Institute enables and enhances productive
research and education relationships within GW, and among the many experts
throughout the region and the world.
