Growing Risks for Emerging Technologies
The U.S. Government continues to address what it has identified as National Security risks with the development of key emerging technologies. In response, university researchers should expect increased regulatory efforts to address the risks, including stronger export controls on specific equipment鈥攆or example, 鈥攁s well as broader measures, including through of certain types of foreign investment, and .
Three technologies have been as being of 鈥減articular importance鈥 over the coming decade. These technologies are relevant to CU 麻豆影院 research efforts, and include:
- Next generation computing (i.e. microelectronics, quantum information systems and artificial intelligence)
- Biotech/biomanufacturing
- Clean energy
One clear example of this in practice is the on providing quantum computing services to persons located in Russia and Belarus.
For CU 麻豆影院 researchers operating in these areas, it is crucial, now more than ever, to ensure compliance with a variety of government regulatory regimes, including export controls. For greater context into those technologies that are facing increased scrutiny, and relevant to CU 麻豆影院, please see our list of Emerging Technologies of Interest.
