Taiwan’s central role in the global economy

Taiwan has become an indispensable actor in global supply chains. Its advanced semiconductor manufacturing capabilities keep the global economy running. As global competition intensifies in advanced semiconductor manufacturing and Taiwan undergoes a leadership transition, how will its position in the global economy evolve? What potential opportunities and challenges will Taiwan face? How might the economic environment change under the new William Lai administration?

On June 7, the Center for Asia Policy Studies at Brookings will host a discussion to examine Taiwan’s central role in the global economy and the potential developments that lie ahead.
