China’s Thousand Talents Program: A Strategic Economic Threat
· Research suggests China's Thousand Talents Program (TTP) is a strategic initiative to attract global scientific talent, enhancing China's economic and technological competitiveness.
· It seems likely that TTP poses risks to US economic security, potentially through intellectual property theft and brain drain from US companies.
· The evidence leans toward TTP remaining a significant concern over the next 20 years, as China aims to lead in critical technologies like AI and biotech.
· Controversy exists, with some viewing TTP as legitimate talent recruitment, while others see it as a tool for espionage, affecting US-China relations.
