On Wednesday, April 16th at 2:00 p.m. ET, the Atlantic Council’s Global China Hub and Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security will launch a new report from Cole McFaul and Peter Engelke on “Navigating the US-PRC tech competition in the Global South.“
In their report, McFaul and Engelke outline the current dynamics of the competition in emerging technology between the United States and China and explore its implications for the Global South. Using artificial intelligence (AI) as a case study, the report examines China’s strategic approach to AI expansion in the Global South, highlighting its competitive advantages and challenges.
This panel will discuss the report findings and further examine China’s efforts to influence the geopolitical, economic, and normative stakes in its wider rivalry with the United States. The panel will also provide recommendations to enhance the United States’ technological engagement and competitiveness in the Global South.
The discussion will take place virtually. You can also view the event on the Youtube link above, on X, or on Facebook. To RSVP, register via the registration box on this page.
