Microchip Monopoly

In this episode of Mortal Giants we're going to look at the new race for power – literally. The United States is challenging Asia for dominance in production of the tiny semiconductor chips that help reduce reliance on fossil fuels and will expand and advance artificial intelligence. And technological power will be the key to national power in this century. And to the competition between the U.S. and China.

Mortal Giants is hosted by Sandy Garossino and Vina Nadjibulla.  Sandy is a former crown prosecutor and has been the public affairs columnist for Canada’s National Observer responsible for some groundbreaking investigations. Vina is the vice-president of Research and Strategy at the Asia Pacific Foundation of Canada. She is a frequent media commentator on geopolitics, Canadian foreign policy, and Canada- Asia relations.
