Taiwan’s Economic Security: How is Chip Nationalism Affecting Taiwan?

Past
 Event

  in China

Join us for a discussion on how Taiwan has responded to global semiconductor supply chain restructuring spurred by the United States.

In the wake of the global chip shortage arising from the COVID-19 pandemic, countries are painfully aware of the supply chain (in)security and rush for semiconductor self-sufficiency. Taiwan sits at the epicenter of this global chip crisis, and it is worth exploring whether chip nationalism embraced by major countries undermines Taiwan’s economic security. Given that Taiwan is situated at the frontline for China to obtain cutting-edge chips and for the United States to contain China’s efforts in developing the indigenous semiconductor industry, the panelists will discuss how Taiwan has responded to the CHIP4 initiative advanced by the United States and assess its effectiveness.
