  • Summary

  • This week, we get into Taiwan’s origin story and explore why the tiny island is at the center of a geopolitical tug-of-war between the U.S. and China. How did Taiwan go from its complicated beginnings to becoming the world’s microchip manufacturing capital? And what makes Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) such a valuable prize? We get into all that and more– the rise of TSMC, its pivotal role in the tech world, and the most important question of all: what would happen if TSMC fell into China's hands? China is making big moves on the world stage, challenging U.S. dominance, and the Strategic Ambiguity at play when it comes to Taiwan. Join us as we break down what’s at stake in the battle over Taiwan and the microchips!
