Understanding your scenario

Technology Developer

A scenario profile based on the full assessment, rather than a country ranking.

A Technology Developer can create and sustain strategically important AI technology. Domestic institutions may develop models or specialize in a valuable part of the AI stack. This capability can also emerge through international cooperation where domestic teams make substantive technical contributions and hold meaningful development rights.

The assessment examines whether capability extends beyond a single project and can be maintained over time. Dependence on foreign inputs may remain substantial, even where domestic development is strong. The practical pathway is to support durable research institutions and focus investment on areas where domestic development serves a clear public or economic need.

Suggested next steps

  1. Document sustained technical contributions and development rights.
  2. Secure dependable research compute and retain technical expertise.
  3. Focus development on public needs while managing imported inputs.
