The U.S.-India Initiative on Critical and Emerging Technologies (iCET) aims to elevate and expand the technology partnership between the world’s largest democracies, particularly in critical areas such as semiconductor supply chains, defense innovation, artificial intelligence, quantum technologies, and advanced telecommunications. The synchronization of ICT and defense technologies under iCET creates unprecedented opportunities for both nations. This convergence is especially significant as emerging technologies increasingly play dual roles in civilian and defense applications, making the partnership crucial for both economic growth and national security.
