The conversation will focus on the multifaceted technological competition between the United States and China. We will explore key themes such as the battle for global supply chain dominance, national security implications, geopolitical impacts, and the race to set global standards in emerging technologies. We will also delve into how the U.S.-China technology rivalry is reshaping global politics, economies, and the future of technological innovation.
We encourage you to read in advance the following articles by Professor Miller on China's semiconductor situation, Mexico's microchip advantage, and the West's technology restrictions on China. We also recommend listening to his podcast interviews on the U.S.-China competition over semiconductors and the geopolitics of semiconductor manufacturing.
