Technology / AI Leadership
Technology leadership is the new foundation of geopolitical power.
Technology leadership is the defining arena of strategic competition in the 21st century. Whether in AI, semiconductors, telecommunications, or quantum computing, the nation that leads in discovery, innovation, and deployment will shape the international order. For the United States, this requires not only world-class research and talent, but also forward-looking governance, secure supply chains, trusted international partnerships, and agile public-private collaboration. Technological strength is not just economic advantage—it is national security, democratic resilience, and freedom's best defense.
