Overview
Seems like the secret's out - prominent internet startups across Southeast Asia, including Shopee, Carousell, HonestBee and Shopback, are all increasingly prioritising Taiwan to not only tap into its sizeable digital economy but to also leverage its high-tech talent pool. In this past half-year alone, tech companies such as Google, Microsoft and IBM have earmarked Taiwan as a regional R&D hub for cultivating cutting-edge technologies like AI and blockchain.
On November 14, AppWorks will fly to Singapore to share how the AppWorks Accelerator programme can help founders and startups land in Taiwan to effectively tap into the quality talent pool and find inroads into its sizeable digital economy. AppWorks will host an orientation of all the resources that they provide, spanning in-house recruiting and legal specialists, mentorship from experienced founders, tactical workshops, networking events, corporate partnerships, and access to the largest startup community in Southeast Asia.
You will also have the opportunity to hear from two of AppWorks' very own alumni - Joel Leong, Co-founder of Shopback, and Jun Ting, Founder & CEO of Aimazing, who will each host a sharing session on how they have leveraged AppWorks to push their startups forward.
