Please join the Renewing American Innovation Project at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) for a discussion of Chris Miller’s new book Chip War: The Fight for the World’s Most Critical Technology.

Chris Miller is Associate Professor of International History at The Fletcher School at Tufts University.

He received a PhD in history from Yale University and a BA in history from Harvard University. Charles Wessner is an adjunct professor at Georgetown University, where he teaches global innovation policy while also serving as a senior adviser (non-resident) to the CSIS Renewing American Innovation Program. He served for two decades as a National Academies scholar, where he founded and directed the National Academy of Sciences’ Technology, Innovation, and Entrepreneurship Program. At the National Academies, Dr. Wessner’s research addressed the importance of semiconductor research and production to innovation and national security. He is a leading U.S. expert on Sematech, the U.S. semiconductor consortium, and the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program, which provides awards to promising small businesses and start-ups.
