India will aim to get semiconductor investments and multilateral funding at the second summit of the 16-nation Pax Silica international coalition, focused on securing access to critical raw materials and rare earths in the backdrop of China’s weaponisation of supply chains.
Senior officials from the ministries of electronics and information technology, and external affairs will be in Washington DC for the conference on Thursday-Friday. The Netherlands, Germany and the European Union — newest entrants to the pact holding significant semiconductor manufacturing capability — will also participate.
