As the global landscape changes rapidly and the technological, economic, and trade order continues to evolve, AI represents more than a wave of technological advancement. It has become a critical factor shaping national security and industrial strategies. Countries are steadily integrating economic security into their broader strategic thinking amid the regional restructuring of supply chains, export controls on critical technologies, and closer scrutiny of cross-border investment. Taiwan occupies a pivotal position in the Indo-Pacific and plays an important role in high-tech manufacturing and innovation ecosystems. How Taiwan can cooperate with like-minded partners to address emerging challenges has therefore become a key focus across sectors.
Entitled “Economic Security in the AI Era: Taiwan’s Cooperation with Like-Minded Countries,” this symposium aims to chart a clear course and build consensus amid a changing global landscape. The event will focus on two key themes. The first is how international coordination can enhance the resilience of economic security policies amid mounting geopolitical uncertainty. The second is how like-minded countries can deepen cooperation based on mutual trust and jointly build more resilient industrial ecosystems in response to intensifying global technology competition.
