US President Donald Trump’s tariffs are expected to not only intensify the US-China tech war, but also reshape the world’s technological and economic landscape. Apart from profoundly affecting key sectors such as semiconductors and biomedicine, the tariffs create new challenges for China in its goal to achieve technological self-sufficiency.
To shed more light on these complex dynamics, the webinar’s panel will feature guest speaker Gary Ng, senior economist for Asia-Pacific at Natixis.
The webinar’s discussion will cover:

How tariffs disrupt the supply chains of semiconductors and biomedicine


China’s strategy on how to reduce reliance on foreign semiconductor technology


How an intensified tech war could potentially affect the pace of AI development in China


Beijing’s position in tackling the impact of tariffs on China’s technology industry

Our panellists are:

Gary Ng, senior economist, Natixis Corporate & Investment Banking


Bien Perez, SCMP senior production editor, technology


Xinmei Shen, SCMP technology reporter


Zhou Xin, SCMP technology editor (moderator)
