Security and Defence: Critical Minerals and Supply Chain Resilience

Explore how critical minerals shape semiconductors, advanced technologies, national security, and global supply chain resilience.
About this Event

The NASPO Department of Supply Chain Management at Arizona State University’s W. P. Carey School of Business invites faculty, students, researchers, industry professionals, and other interested participants to join a discussion exploring critical minerals, semiconductor supply chains, security and defence, and supply chain resilience.

The Security and Defence project is part of the PLuS Alliance, a collaboration among Arizona State University, UNSW Canberra, and King’s College London.

As demand for semiconductors and other advanced technologies continues to grow, access to critical minerals and the resilience of the supply chains supporting them have become increasingly important. This event will bring together perspectives from across the partner institutions and broader community to discuss these connections, share ongoing work, and consider emerging challenges and opportunities.

The program will include presentations and discussions, with opportunities for both in-person and virtual participation.
