Executive Order 14320 of July 23, 2025
Promoting the Export of the American AI
Technology Stack
By the authority vested in me as President by the
Constitution and the laws of the United States of
America, including section 301 of title 3, United
States Code, it is hereby ordered:
Section 1. Purpose. Artificial intelligence (AI) is a
foundational technology that will define the future of
economic growth, national security, and global
competitiveness for decades to come. The United States
must not only lead in developing general-purpose and
frontier AI capabilities, but also ensure that American
AI technologies, standards, and governance models are
adopted worldwide to strengthen relationships with our
allies and secure our continued technological
dominance. This order establishes a coordinated
national effort to support the American AI industry by
promoting the export of full-stack American AI
technology packages.
Sec. 2. Policy. It is the policy of the United States
to preserve and extend American leadership in AI and
decrease international dependence on AI technologies
developed by our adversaries by supporting the global
deployment of United States-origin AI technologies.
Sec. 3. Establishment of the American AI Exports
Program. (a) Within 90 days of the date of this order,
the Secretary of Commerce shall, in consultation with
the Secretary of State and the Director of the Office
of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), establish and
implement the American AI Exports Program (Program) to
support the development and deployment of United States
full-stack AI export packages.
(b) The Secretary of Commerce shall issue a public
call for proposals from industry-led consortia for
inclusion in the Program. The public call shall require
that each proposal must:
(i) include a full-stack AI technology package, which encompasses:
(A) AI-optimized computer hardware (e.g., chips, servers, and
accelerators), data center storage, cloud services, and networking, as well
as a description of whether and to what extent such items are manufactured
in the United States;
(B) data pipelines and labeling systems;
(C) AI models and systems;
(D) measures to ensure the security and cybersecurity of AI models and
systems; and
(E) AI applications for specific use cases (e.g., software engineering,
education, healthcare, agriculture, or transportation);
(ii) identify specific target countries or regional blocs for export
engagement;
(iii) describe a business and operational model to explain, at a high
level, which entities will build, own, and operate data centers and
associated infrastructure;
(iv) detail requested Federal incentives and support mechanisms; and
(v) comply with all relevant United States export control regimes, outbound
investment regulations, and end-user policies, including chapter 58 of
title 50, United States Code, and relevant guidance from the Bureau of
Industry and Security within the Department of Commerce.
[[Page 35394]]
(c) The Department of Commerce shall require
proposals to be submitted no later than 90 days after
the public call for proposals is issued, and shall
consider proposals on a rolling basis for inclusion in
the Program.
(d) The Secretary of Commerce shall, in
consultation with the Secretary of State, the Secretary
of Defense, the Secretary of Energy, and the Director
of OSTP, evaluate submitted proposals for inclusion
under the Program. Proposals selected by the Secretary
of Commerce, in consultation with the Secretary of
State, the Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of
Energy, and the Director of OSTP, will be designated as
priority AI export packages and will be supported
through priority access to the tools identified in
section 4 of this order, as consistent with applicable
law.
Sec. 4. Mobilization of Federal Financing Tools. (a)
The Economic Diplomacy Action Group (EDAG), established
in the Presidential Memorandum of June 21, 2024,
chaired by the Secretary of State, in consultation with
the Secretary of Commerce and the United States Trade
Representative, and as described in section 708 of the
Championing American Business Through Diplomacy Act of
2019 (Title VII of Division J of Public Law 116-94)
(CABDA), shall coordinate mobilization of Federal
financing tools in support of priority AI export
packages.
(b) I delegate to the Administrator of the Small
Business Administration and the Director of OSTP the
authority under section 708(c)(3) of CABDA to appoint
senior officials from their respective executive
departments and agencies to serve as members of the
EDAG.
(c) The Secretary of State, in consultation with
the EDAG, shall be responsible for:
(i) developing and executing a unified Federal Government strategy to
promote the export of American AI technologies and standards;
(ii) aligning technical, financial, and diplomatic resources to accelerate
deployment of priority AI export packages under the Program;
(iii) coordinating United States participation in multilateral initiatives
and country-specific partnerships for AI deployment and export promotion;
(iv) supporting partner countries in fostering pro-innovation regulatory,
data, and infrastructure environments conducive to the deployment of
American AI systems;
(v) analyzing market access, including technical barriers to trade and
regulatory measures that may impede the competitiveness of United States
offerings; and
(vi) coordinating with the Small Business Administration's Office of
Investment and Innovation to facilitate, to the extent permitted under
applicable law, investment in United States small businesses to the
development of American AI technologies and the manufacture of AI
infrastructure, hardware, and systems.
(d) Members of the EDAG shall deploy, to the
maximum extent permitted by law, available Federal
tools to support the priority export packages selected
for participation in the Program, including direct
loans and loan guarantees (12 U.S.C.635); equity
investments, co-financing, political risk insurance,
and credit guarantees (22 U.S.C.9621); and technical
assistance and feasibility studies (22 U.S.C. 2421(b)).
Sec. 5. General Provisions. (a) Nothing in this order
shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect:
(i) the authority granted by law to an executive department or agency, or
the head thereof; or
(ii) the functions of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget
relating to budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals.
(b) This order shall be implemented consistent with
applicable law and subject to the availability of
appropriations.
(c) This order is not intended to, and does not,
create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural,
enforceable at law or in equity by any party
[[Page 35395]]
against the United States, its departments, agencies,
or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any
other person.
