China has been deepening its technological presence and influence across the Global South. This report, led by Peter Engelke and Conrad Tucker, is the culmination of a three-year project examining the evolving technology landscape in the Global South and how countries in the region perceive and navigate the US-China tech competition. It also identifies strategic opportunities for the United States to strengthen its approach and offers recommendations for US policymakers.
