# Will the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership Live Up to Its Promise? — The Geopolitical and Security Implications of TTIP 

A heightened sense of anxiety on Europe’s eastern border has renewed geopolitical concerns on the Continent. This panel will focus on the security rationale for TTIP, discuss the interplay between economic security and national defense, and describe the relative importance of geopolitical considerations to the launch and success of the TTIP. Panelists will discuss the implications of the TTIP for energy security, privacy protection, cybersecurity, NATO, and other policies at the intersection of economics and security.
