Commission signs Pax Silica declaration

The European Commission has signed the Pax Silica Declaration on behalf of the EU, committing to working with global partners to advance AI and supply chain security.

As AI reshapes our economies and societies, secure and resilient silicon supply chains are more important than ever. The Pax Silica initiative aims to strengthen these supply chains, and improve coordination among trusted allies and partners. It will also create new opportunities for European business, supporting prosperity, technological progress and economic security.

International cooperation is an essential part of strengthening our tech competitiveness and, in turn, will contribute to the EU's tech sovereignty. The EU's signature comes shortly after the Commission adopted the Technological Sovereignty Package. Among other things, the package included the Chips Act 2.0, which aims to build resilience in our semiconductor supply chains.
