The Politics of Steel

Nippon Steel made headlines last month when then-President Joe Biden blocked its attempted $15 billion acquisition of U.S. Steel after the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States failed to reach a consensus on the deal’s security risks. Nippon Steel and U.S. Steel have filed multiple lawsuits alleging wrongful interference with the acquisition.

This in-person and virtual event presented by Morgan Lewis and the Japan Society of Northern California will discuss what went wrong with the acquisition, what are the next steps forward, and what sign does this send to foreign investors looking to invest in manufacturing in the US?
