Geopolitical alignment is driving significant investment in supply chain resilience, particularly within the Indo-Pacific region. Recent summits between India and Japan have yielded commitments exceeding $10 billion in Japanese investment, focused on bolstering economic security across sectors like semiconductors, critical minerals, and clean energy. These partnerships are also expanding cooperation in cybersecurity and defense technologies, underscored by initiatives like the UNICORN defense project and a roadmap for AI collaboration. Simultaneously, India's Semicon 2.0 policy, backed by a substantial ₹1.27 lakh crore budget, signals a determined effort to cultivate a domestic semiconductor ecosystem, aiming to reduce reliance on external sources and strengthen technological independence.
