Taiwan: A High‑Tech Gateway for European Expansion
Taiwan is a high‑income, export‑oriented economy anchored by world‑class electronics and semiconductor manufacturing. Besides that, the market offers deep R&D capability, sophisticated suppliers, and a skilled workforce. As a result, it is ideal for high‑tech partnerships, component sourcing, and specialised manufacturing.
However, success requires tailored market strategies, strong IP protection, and contingency planning. In addition, companies must consider supply chain concentration and regional political dynamics. Therefore, using local partners accelerates distributor management, certification, and after‑sales support.
- Opportunities: High-income market, skilled workforce, advanced manufacturing ecosystems, skilled R&D partners.
- Challenges: Supplier risk and geopolitical exposure, secure IP and compliant technology transfer, localised products and contracts.
