Recording available: Digital Taiwan Lecture Series – Bridging Nordic Dual-Use Innovation and Taiwan’s Defense Ecosystem
Through the lens of Sweden’s growing engagement in dual-use innovation and emerging technologies, this webinar explored where Nordic and Taiwanese priorities align, the opportunities and barriers shaping future collaboration, and how dual-use innovation ecosystems can support deeper engagement between Europe and the Indo-Pacific.
The session also highlighted applied examples from Swedish research projects involving AI, robotics, sensor fusion, and dual-use technological development. More specifically, the applied examples covered the scenario of dealing with poor visibility in murky waters for an underwater robot, satellite imagery for analysis and reasoning integration, and collaborative robots for large-scale environment monitoring and mapping – and how they can be further developed and applied for dual-use.
The discussion combined strategic analysis of evolving defense-industrial trends with real-world examples drawn from recent research projects and emerging technologies shaping the future of dual-use innovation.
