Innovation and Technology in China
The Project on the Study of Innovation and Technology in China (SITC), led by Senior Research Fellow Tai Ming Cheung and IGCC Director Susan Shirk, seeks to understand the approaches, challenges, and prospects for success in China’s quest for technological transformation.
The primary goals of the project are several-fold:
- Conduct investigations into the fast-changing evolution of the Chinese defense and dual-use STI bases.
- Locate this research within a broad functional and comparative framework that contrasts the Chinese experience with Korea, Taiwan, Japan, and the United States.
- Address the security implications of China’s military and technological transformation for the United States and the international community.
- Bring together and nurture a community of U.S. scholars from diverse disciplinary fields to help develop the field of Chinese security and technology studies and a center for academic excellence at IGCC.
IGCC established SITC in spring 2009, with primary funding from the Department of Defense’s Minerva Initiative.
