Show Details

CIECA and the European Chamber of Commerce Taiwan (ECCT) co-organized the “Taiwan & EU Business Networking Reception” at Regent Taipei on May 30, 2023. CIECA Chairman Henry Kao and ECCT Chairman Giuseppe Izzo served as the co-host. Ms. Wang Mei-Hua, Ministry of Economic Affairs; Ms. Maive Rute, Deputy Di-rector-General of DG GROW, European Commission; and Mr. Filip Grzegorzewski, Head of Office of European Economic and Trade Office (EETO) in Taipei; were invited to deliver opening remarks respectively. Combining with the “2023 European Innovation Week,” the event was held for welcoming the delegation of the DG GROW from European Commission to visit Taiwan. On that occasion, the distinguished speakers from Taiwan and Europe all mentioned that Taiwan and the EU share common values of democracy, human rights, and laws and order. Looking ahead, Taiwan and the EU have big room for cooperation among industries, government, academia in the fields of green energy (including circular economy, renewable energy, and electric vehicles), digitalization (chips, information security), and supply chain resilience. Beyond that, cultural and academic exchanges could also be furthered through sponsoring concerts and many other cultural activities. It is expected that more opportunities for cooperation among government, enterprises and the public will be created. Representatives of various industry associations in Taiwan, European countries’ representatives in Taiwan, European delegations, heavyweight Taiwanese companies investing in the EU, listed companies, and important European businessmen in Taiwan were invited to attend the said event. More than 200 guests were present at the reception, including representatives from the offices of European Union and its member states in Taiwan.
