Following the recent Trump-Xi summit, major questions remain about the future of U.S.-China tech competition. Join CSIS Economic Security and Technology Department's Navin Girishankar, Aalok Mehta, Lauryn Williams, and James Lewis on Wednesday, May 20 from 10:00am-10:30am to unpack what both sides expected, the implications of China's growing role as a global innovation hub, cybersecurity stakes, what AI guardrails — if any — are on the table, and what complications China's coordination with Iran poses for negotiations moving forward.
This event is made possible through general support to CSIS.
