U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau emphasized the importance of keeping advanced semiconductors, AI infrastructure, and other critical technologies within trusted partners to ensure secure economic growth and security.
Landau introduced the Pax Silica initiative, aimed at building secure, market-oriented AI supply chains among trusted partners while reducing dependencies on China.
Nine new signatories to the Pax Silica Declaration were announced, including the European Union, the Netherlands, and Germany, strengthening the initiative.
Taiwan attended the summit as a non-signatory participant and discussed its role in the AI supply chain.
New initiatives unveiled include PaxPass to streamline customs clearance for trusted shipments and Foundry School, a project with Stanford University to train AI and manufacturing talent.
Participating governments are expected to commit to the Declaration on AI Opportunity, pledging support for pro-growth AI policies, resilient supply chains, and investment in AI infrastructure.
