The Berkeley APEC Study Center (BASC) at the University of California Berkeley conducts multidisciplinary research activities that analyze political, economic, and business trends in the Asia-Pacific, with a particular focus on the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) forum. Our primary mission is to produce and disseminate useful knowledge to decision-makers in both the public and private spheres to facilitate the creation of mutually beneficial cooperation in the business, academic, and policy-making communities. To this end, the center brings together scholars from various departments, institutes, and centers from around the world to foster collaborative research on APEC-related issues.
