What happens when your rival beats you to the finish line in emerging technology? Martijn Rasser explains why (1) quantum computing and (2) biotechnology are the two most dangerous areas of China’s technological advancement. Here’s WHY it’s such a critical issue to follow: - China’s approach to biotechnology crosses ethical boundaries. They’re willing to apply biotechnologies in ways the U.S. and its allies would never, opening the door to risks we can’t control. - With quantum computing, their progress could upend encryption systems—exposing sensitive data and undermining global security. Martijn knows these topics better than most, so I couldn’t wait to get his thoughts on these threats. His career spans over a decade at the CIA, where he analyzed technological innovation and weapons development, and now at Datenna, where he tracks China’s innovation strategies in real-time. ⚠️ His warning is clear: The first to reach the finish line gains an unmatched advantage—and China is playing to win. Listen to Martijn’s full breakdown of the risks and what they mean for the U.S. in this week’s Navigating Noise episode: navigatingnoisepodcast.com

Datenna was excited to contribute to a new report by UK-China Transparency digging into the case of the UK semiconductor company Imagination Technologies. Imagination’s acquisition by China-funded private equity firm Canyon Bridge has drawn concerns over asset-stripping, buying a company with the intention of absorbing away its intellectual property. The highly detailed report relies on court documents, interviews, online research and, of course, data on Chinese company ownership and management supplied by a Datenna investigation. Imagination’s case highlights the crucial role of due diligence into the background of an acquiring company, including connections to foreign states and militaries whether through ownership or management links.
