Winners Announced for 2018 Global Startup Talents @ Taipei
As a continued effort in fostering innovation and facilitating exchanges with international startups, the Department of Economic Development (DED) organized the 2018 Global Startup Talents @ Taipei, a program targeted at international teams.
This year’s program attracted a total of 112 teams from 25 countries. Submissions span a wide range of industrial focuses, from information and communications technology (ICT), internet of things (IoT), Biotechnology (Bio), artificial intelligence (AI), augmented reality/ virtual reality (AR/VR), consumer internet (CI) to deep tech.
The panel reviewed entries based on their respective potentials such as level of innovation, marketability, team profile, possible business model, and possible relevance with the city’s industries.
Originally set to award 20 teams, the high level of achievement demonstrated by the participating entries led to an additional 12 teams being included to the list of winners (See the list below for details).
According to DED, the winners will visit Taipei in early June and stay for at least ten days. They will have a chance to meet with local teams for more in-depth exchanges, work in incubation centers or co-working spaces alike, and demonstrate their expertise.
