EU joins Pax Silica initiative for AI and chip supply-chain security
The European Commission and India are participating in the US-led Pax Silica initiative, which coordinates access to critical minerals, energy, data-centre capacity, advanced manufacturing, secure data-sharing frameworks and AI models. S. Krishnan of India’s Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology highlighted diversification across the full AI stack.
