    Huawei USA’s Andy Purdy to Speak on National Security and U.S.-China Trade in Telecoms at TPRC48

    Huawei Technologies USA's Chief Security Officer, Andy Purdy, will be speaking at the TPRC48 Program, the research conference on communications, information and internet policy. Taking place from February 17-19, the event will bring together a diverse group of researchers from academia, industry, government and nonprofit organizations from around the globe to discuss the latest developments related to national and international policy on communications, information and the Internet. Registration for the virtual event can be found here.

    Purdy's virtual panel titled, "Is U.S.-China Trade in Telecoms and Information Compatible with National Security?" will take place on Wednesday, February 17 at 1 p.m. ET. He will be joined on the panel by Claude Barfield, Resident Scholar at the American Enterprise Institute. The panel will be moderated by Milton Mueller, Professor at the Georgia Institute of Technology, and Shane Tews, Visiting Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute. The panel will feature a balanced discussion around the issues of cybersecurity, the use of common standards and standards development organizations, trade in telecommunications equipment, internet services and e-commerce.

    Why is the U.S. turning toward tech nationalism and pulling back from its support for a free market economy in communications in order to counter the rise of Chinese capabilities? Is the use of Huawei equipment really a national security threat to the U.S.? Internet, policy and cybersecurity experts will deliberate on these questions and the overall impact of U.S.-China conflict on telecommunications policy during the virtual panel discussion. Tune into TPRC48 from February 17 through 19 for these answers and more conversations around the latest issues facing the telecommunications industry, from the experts themselves.
