A delegation from Taiwan attended the second Pax Silica Summit organized by the U.S. Department of State June 25-26 in Washington, D.C., according to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The delegation was led by Isabel Hou, deputy minister of digital affairs, and included Huang Yu-lin, secretary general of the Taipei City-based International Cooperation and Development Fund, and Liao Jung-yu, a manager at Hsinchu County-headquartered Industrial Technology and Research Institute.
During the event, Hou, Huang and Liao had in-depth discussions with other attendees on forging a trustworthy artificial intelligence supply chain, expanding investment and innovation, and deepening collaboration in computing infrastructure, critical minerals, energy and semiconductors. The deputy minister also outlined how the government and industry have supported industrial innovation, highlighting Taiwan’s role in the global AI sector.
The MOFA said it welcomes the U.S.’ continued efforts to strengthen cooperation with Taiwan and other regional partners on economic security issues following the sixth formal meeting of the Economic Prosperity Partnership Dialogue Jan. 27 in Washington, D.C., and the signing of the Joint Statement on the Pax Silica Declaration and U.S.-Taiwan Economic Security Cooperation the same day in Arlington, Virginia.
With its strong manufacturing capabilities and highly integrated supply chains, Taiwan will continue to work with the U.S. and other major partners under the EPPD and Pax Silica frameworks, the ministry stated.
Launched in December 2025 by Under Secretary for Economic Affairs Jacob Helberg, Pax Silica is a key plank in the U.S. Department of State’s efforts to uphold AI and supply chain security, according to a press release issued by the department June 26. (POC-E)
