Xi Pushes Advanced Manufacturing Self-Reliance as Exports Rise — Sep 17, 2026President Xi Jinping urged China to expand its advanced manufacturing sector, strengthen control over key industrial supply chains, and accelerate AI-driven upgrades to build a modern industrial system with greater self-reliance in high-end technology. The push accompanies a shift of resources toward manufacturing and indigenous tech, with Premier Li Qiang backing next-generation intelligent manufacturing amid global supply-chain disruptions.

Maya Lindstrom Focusing on self-reliance might help long term but risks cutting off useful foreign tech inputs.

Poland nearly quadruples domestic defence spending while building Europe's largest land army — Sep 1, 2026Poland is pivoting its defence procurement toward domestic and Central European suppliers as it builds Europe's largest land army, quadrupling spending to 30.4 billion zlotys and targeting about €53 billion in core defence this year. Officials say this shift strengthens supply-chain resilience, reduces reliance on distant vendors, and prioritizes domestically produced drones, ammunition and other frequently used equipment amid Russia's threat and lessons from the Ukraine war.

Derek Foss Makes sense to build up domestic industry now rather than depend on shipments that might get delayed if things get worse.

Tencent-Backed Enflame Shares Triple in Shanghai Debut — Sep 9, 2026Tencent-backed Enflame Technology surged about 200% in its Shanghai STAR Market debut after raising 6.12 billion yuan in its IPO, with the stock trading around 430 yuan and the company valued far above its IPO price. The listing, part of China’s push to build home-grown AI chips, shows Enflame’s strong investor interest despite ongoing net losses and a heavy reliance on Tencent as both a shareholder and customer as it eyes next-generation chips.

Lilly Plans $2.88B Merida Autoimmune AcquisitionBusiness — Sep 3, 2026Eli Lilly is rapidly expanding beyond its obesity-and-diabetes blockbuster lineup, striking two multi-deal paths: a $2.875 billion-plus acquisition of Merida Biosciences to broaden its autoimmune and antibody-directed therapies, and a $3.83 billion spree to acquire three biotech firms—Curevo, LimmaTech Biologics, and Vaccine Company—to build a broader vaccine and infectious-disease pipeline. The moves underscore a strategy to diversify growth into immunology, infectious diseases, and autoantibody therapies while managing revenue risk from reliance on a small number of weight‑loss drugs.

Trump Unveils Multibillion Critical Minerals Push — Aug 7, 2026President Trump unveiled a coordinated package totaling over $180 million in grants to expand mining education and workforce programs, backed by $100 million from the Department of Energy and more than $80 million from the military to three universities, including the Colorado School of Mines, the South Dakota School of Mines, and Johns Hopkins University, to build a domestic critical minerals talent pool. The move, announced at a State Department roundtable, aims to strengthen U.S. supply chains for critical minerals and reduce reliance on China, as part of a broader push to boost mining innovation and manufacturing resilience.
