Taiwan as a Bridge between West and East
Being a hub in Asia, Taiwan is familiar with Asian language, culture, history, and mindset. By bridging western and Asian demand and supply, Taiwan serves as an ideal connection to Asia and the rest of the world. After hosting X Talent Program fellows, you might have the best candidates to locate in the Asian office of your company who might be your Asian contact person to bridge your overseas offices as well as customers or partners. These trainees could potentially become your international focal point in Asia for research and development, for marketing or even for human resource training and other functions that your company might need.
Particularly, the “New Southbound Policy” has driven Taiwan to build a tight connection with ASEAN, New Zealand, Australia and some south Asian countries in several critical industries. This enables Taiwan to have strengthened cooperation relationships with these countries/partners. Therefore, Taiwan could be a critical bridge for your company and the market in the east.
