In the context of India-Taiwan relations, this book investigates the convergence of science, technology, and diplomacy (S&TD). It dives into the changing environment of digital breakthroughs and their influence on India-Taiwan bilateral collaboration. It explores existing problems, possibilities, and tactics involved in using science and technology (S&T) as major tools of diplomacy, with an emphasis on India-Taiwan diplomatic ties. The book primarily focuses on India-Taiwan bilateral ties in the framework of science, technology, and innovation (STI). It explores how these two nations navigate diplomatic channels and collaborate on scientific and technological initiatives in the digital age, focusing on case studies involving the semiconductor industry, health governance, and the adoption, competition, and diplomacy surrounding 5G technology. It sheds light on the hurdles that must be overcome, the geopolitical influences at work, and the possibilities for mutually beneficial relationships in this quickly changing scene. The book's scope also includes policy analysis, case studies, and future projections to provide a thorough picture of India-Taiwan ties in science and technology diplomacy (S&TD). The goal is to provide a comprehensive resource for policymakers, scholars, diplomats, and anyone else interested in the dynamics of science and technology diplomacy (S&TD) between Taiwan and India in the digital era.
