Join Hudson Institute Senior Fellow Bryan Clark, Adjunct Fellow Dan Patt, Congresswoman Mikie Sherrill, Air Force Chief Scientist Dr. Victoria Coleman, and financier Jay Goldberg for a discussion on the state of the U.S. microelectronics industry and strategies to restore America’s leadership in this crucial sector. Recent supply chain disruptions and efforts by China to dominate semiconductor production have prompted calls for the U.S. government to invest in new American semiconductor manufacturing facilities. However, this approach does not address the higher cost of U.S. manufacturing or the need to invest in future microelectronics technologies that will enable U.S. chipmakers to establish a first-mover advantage. How should the government proceed? Please join Hudson Institute for this timely discussion.
