Diving into 50 years of innovation, A Chip Odyssey traces Taiwan’s remarkable rise at the heart of the global semiconductor industry—now a cornerstone of the AI era and advanced chip manufacturing. The film highlights how this industry has transformed the island into an indispensable technological powerhouse.
The screening will be followed by a discussion with specialists Dr. Olga Alexeeva and Dr. Honghong Tinn, who will examine the sector’s strategic role in Taiwan’s trajectory, its weight in the U.S.–China rivalry, and the systemic risks that a disruption of Taiwanese exports to Western companies would pose in the event of a conflict. A unique opportunity to understand how a single industry can shape the balance of global power.
