Pritzker Forum on Global Cities: The Semiconductor Race

AI is powered by the processing power of semiconductors-but these crucial components are only produced by a handful of companies in a delicate web of global collaboration. More than ever, the ability to develop and manufacture these chips generates significant economic and political power. In this session, we explore how cities can play a pivotal role as the need for skilled workers continues to rise.
