Moderator:

As great power competition intensifies and the Indo-Pacific security environment becomes increasingly contested, strengthening defense cooperation with Taiwan has become an urgent priority for the United States. The next phase of US-Taiwan security integration will require Washington and Taipei to build a shared industrial foundation that can deliver the capabilities, systems, and technologies needed to deter Chinese coercion and preserve stability in the Taiwan Strait.

Join Hudson for a discussion with senior defense, industry, and policy leaders on how the US and Taiwan can advance collaborative models for codevelopment, coproduction, and supply chain integration. The conversation will explore practical pathways for accelerating asymmetric capabilities, enabling technology transfer, building trusted industrial partnerships, and aligning procurement processes to meet emerging threats.
