Tech Sovereignty & Security
Securing America’s Technological Future
The Tech Sovereignty & Security portfolio at New Lines Institute addresses one of the most critical strategic challenges facing the United States today: maintaining technological leadership in an era of intensifying global competition. As technological innovation accelerates and geopolitical tensions rise, the U.S. faces unprecedented challenges to its technological sovereignty and security posture. Our work bridges the gap between cutting-edge technical expertise and practical policymaking, providing decision-makers with in-depth research and actionable recommendations that respond to both immediate threats and long-term strategic imperatives. America’s technological advantage, which has been a cornerstone of its economic prosperity and national security for decades, now faces systematic challenges from strategic competitors, particularly China. These challenges extend beyond simple technological rivalry to encompass fundamental questions about supply chain resilience, talent development, research security, and the governance frameworks that will shape tomorrow’s technological landscape. The decisions made today will determine whether the United States maintains its position as the world’s leading technological innovator and whether these innovations will enhance or undermine American security and values.Key Focus Areas
Our portfolio encompasses vital technological domains where U.S. leadership and security are at stake:- Artificial Intelligence & Advanced Computing: Examining pathways to maintain U.S. leadership in AI development while ensuring these systems align with American values and security interests.
- Quantum Technologies: Addressing immediate and long-term security implications of quantum computing, including necessary cryptographic adaptations and strategic advantages.
