最後一張照片是此行的回家之路~~~ 碰上康芮颱風襲台, 眼看著台灣就在眼前, 我們的飛機卻只能不斷的在空中盤旋, 被澳門機場拒絕後颱風影響南台灣的威力已稍稍減弱, 高雄的小港機場接受了我們 (知道這個消息真的快哭出來, 很高興)但是強烈的側風下, 我們降落又拉起, 一直到第三次才成功降落, 響起一片掌聲時, 真的覺得沒有甚麼比開開心心的當下每一天都重要了!!!

TINVA Startup Team at SWITCH 2024: Enhancing Global Influence and Seizing New Opportunities in the ASEAN Market

 

From October 27 to 30, Taiwan’s national startup team, jointly organized by Startup Island TAIWAN and Asia Bay Startup Hub, and supported by TINVA and other organizations, traveled to Singapore to participate in SWITCH (Singapore Week of Innovation and Technology), Asia's flagship innovation expo. This mission laid the groundwork for boosting visibility and market expansion for Taiwanese startups in the ASEAN region. Beyond showcasing Taiwan's deep tech strengths to the global innovation community, this event fostered a dynamic partnership between industry, government, and academia, attracting widespread participation from stakeholders in Taiwan, Singapore, and beyond. Through forums, networking activities, matchmaking, and exhibition booths, Taiwan’s team engaged with international entrepreneurs and investors, actively paving the way for Taiwanese companies to enter the ASEAN market.

 

SWITCH: A Global Platform for Startup Exchange

 

Organized by Enterprise Singapore, the SWITCH event annually brings together entrepreneurs, investors, and industry experts from around the world, serving as a key gateway to understanding the Southeast Asian innovation ecosystem. This year’s program explored a variety of cutting-edge themes, including quantum technology, climate tech innovations, green energy transition, space technology, and AI applications.

 

Outstanding Achievements by TINVA Startups, Strengthening ASEAN Connections

 

In 2024, TINVA’s recommended startups successfully secured seven exhibition spots, achieving impressive results across forums, investor pitches, and one-on-one matchmaking. The participating companies included:

 

  • TSGC
  • Ubestream
  • Phansco
  • iPreg
  • Keypassco
  • Dentell
  • Freebionics

 

On October 27, the Taipei Business Association in Singapore (TBAS) Youth Chapter hosted the “Tai-Sin Startup Summit Forum” at Singapore Management University (SMU), bringing together key players in Singapore’s innovation ecosystem to discuss the challenges and opportunities for Taiwanese startups entering the ASEAN market. Taiwan’s stock exchange also shared the presentation “IPO in Taiwan: Why It Matters to Southeast Asia,” introducing the advantages of Taiwan’s capital markets to ASEAN entrepreneurs, encouraging growth, and strengthening international business and capital collaborations for Taiwanese startups.

 

The event culminated in the SLINGSHOT Challenge Grand Finals, which attracted top deep tech talent from around the world. Competitors showcased diverse technologies addressing societal issues, with a final selection of top 10 startups across five key categories.

1.Consumer Media, Goods and Services

 Ariadne (Germany) - Real-time spatial intelligence for crowd analytics

 UMAMI Bioworks (Singapore) - Tech for cultivated bioproducts and sustainable planetary biosolutions

2.Environment, Energy and Green Technologies

 Novac (Italy) - Shapeable, solid-state supercapacitors that integrate seamlessly into composite materials

 Matwerkz Technology (Singapore) - Unique thermal management solutions tailored across industries

3.Health and Biomedical

 SONIRE Therapeutics (Japan) - Ultrasound guided high-intensity focused ultrasound therapy system to treat intractable cancer.

 STEMDEN (Korea) -  Tissue regeneration pharmaceuticals for dental treatment.

4.Manufacturing, Trade and Connectivity

 Menou (Japan) - No-code artificial intelligence solutions for industrial inspections.

 Holdson (United Kingdom) - Advanced electrochemical polishing technology.

5.Transformative Digital Technologies

 EinProt (Singapore) - Generation of novel proteins with enhanced properties.

 Blumind (Canada) - A proprietary analogue semiconductor engine that slashes energy consumption for IoT solutions.

 

Through participation in SWITCH, TINVA effectively coordinated Taiwan’s startup resources, paving the way for further expansion in the ASEAN market. Looking forward, TINVA will continue to support Taiwanese startups in going global, facilitating funding, technology, and market collaboration to reinforce Taiwan's role within the global innovation ecosystem. Going forward, TINVA aims to strengthen connections with international innovation hubs and investors, supporting more Taiwanese startups in establishing a foothold in the ASEAN market and aligning Taiwan’s innovative strengths with international market needs.
