U.S.- China Tech Battle: Huawei and the Fight for Dominance in Wireless Technology

Come hear Andy Purdy, Chief Security Officer, Huawei Technologies USA, and U.S. security and tech experts discuss U.S.-China tech competition, the race for 5G, and the current U.S. government policy on Huawei Technologies, the world’s largest telecom equipment maker and China’s largest telephone-network equipment maker.

 

The U.S. Justice Department is pressing for the extradition of Huawei CFO Wanzhou Meng, who is under arrest in Canada at the request of the U.S. over alleged Iran sanctions violations, and is pressuring U.S. companies – and U.S. allies around the world — to stop both selling to Huawei and purchasing its products. Are there serious security issues at play? To what extent is U.S. policy driven by global competition and the race for 5G dominance? Is the “free” internet facing an existential threat posed by a powerful Chinese player?
