    Geopolitical Insights: Navigating a Globalized Economy

    In this special episode of the Industrial Advisors Podcast, co-hosts Bill Condon and Matt McGregor are live at the IAMC Conference in Quebec City. They are joined by geopolitical expert Willis Sparks, who recently delivered a thought-provoking presentation at the event. In this engaging discussion, Willis shares his journey from aspiring actor at Juilliard to his current role at the Eurasia Group, where he analyzes global political risks. Key Discussion Points: Geopolitical Landscape: Willis highlights the shifting dynamics of globalization, moving from a fully global economy to a more regionalized one, while emphasizing that globalization remains a critical factor in today’s world. U.S. Election Insights: As the U.S. heads towards a pivotal election, Willis offers his analysis of the current political climate, predicting a razor-thin race. He provides a fascinating look at polling data and voter turnout operations, noting the unique situation where former President Donald Trump, a known figure, is more of an "incumbent" than Vice President Kamala Harris in the eyes of voters. Mexico and China: Sparks delves into the vital relationship between Mexico and the U.S., especially in the context of trade and manufacturing. He also touches on the industrial shifts away from China, as companies look to nearshoring solutions in places like Mexico, Vietnam, and the Philippines.
