To assist startup companies of Taipei City in acquiring international business opportunities, Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA) was entrusted by the Department of Economic Development of Taipei City Government to organize the “Startup Business Opportunities Exchange Conference” at InnoVEX Zone of Taipei World Trade Center Exhibition Hall 3 during the 2016 COMPUTEX Taipei show from 31st May to 2nd June.

With the development of information technology and its prevalence, many interdisciplinary applications have emerged. Startups which utilize information technology to solve various problems have sprung up like mushrooms, driving waves of entrepreneurship. Taipei City has become one of the best locations for startups to realize their dreams because of the rich variety of industries and the complete software and hardware infrastructure. While differing from normal enterprises, startup businesses are inherently burdened with high risk and uncertainty as well as a lack of resources at the early development stage. Thus, the Department of Economic Development of Taipei City Government has established the “StartUP@Taipei” platform to offer entrepreneurs one-stop consulting services, actively constructing a complete environment for startups, and offering integrated resources and guidance.
Facing superpower countries investing enormous resources on research and innovation one after another to support their startup businesses, the Department of Economic Development of Taipei City Government has established the “StartUP@Taipei” platform at the InnoVEX area to continue and strengthen its innovation and startup policy executionat the 2016 COMPUTEX Taipei, the biggest in Asia and the second largest in the world. 21 high quality startup businesses who received consultation services from the Department of Economic Development of Taipei City Government were invited to participate in the exhibition (as shown in the picture below ), including APP platform developers such as Kiidsfun, a APP platform developer of family entertainment; Wise Path Co., a iPad system developer of English learning; Smartlogistics Company Ltd., a platform developer of logistics services ; iEgoart , a platform developer of arts e-commerce; Zoek Inc., a APP developer of hotel booking; XiaoShun Integration Consulting , a platform developer of elder care services; Green Hope Spring Ltd., Inc., a cloud platform developer of tree growing record; Easy Order Network Co., Ltd., a APP platform developer of beauty services ; and Eyehouse VR, a developer of virtual reality technology (VR).
