Critical Minerals: The New Power Play in Global Trade
10/13/2025 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007Access to critical minerals essential for electronics manufacturing, and China’s monopoly of them, is increasingly under scrutiny, with gallium (Ga) and germanium (Ge)at the forefront of this discourse. However, all critical minerals imported from China share a similar narrative, and understanding the implications of this dependency and the risks to both U.S. commercial and defense sectors has created an urgent need for a comprehensive electronics strategy to secure and diversify access to these vital minerals. In this candid interview, USPAE Executive Director Jim Will discusses the issues and the mitigation steps that must be taken to adequately address them.
Beyond the Board: Early Engagement Means Faster Prototyping for Defense Programs
10/14/2025 | Jesse Vaughan -- Column: Beyond the BoardIn the defense electronics sector, speed-to-market has shifted from being a commercial differentiator to a national security imperative. The ability to move from design concept to deployable system in months rather than years can provide the U.S. with important strategic advantages. Prototyping, once regarded as a costly and optional stage, has become the linchpin for accelerating program schedules while safeguarding performance, compliance, and mission reliability.
