The "TiBOOST Innovation Step Plan" jointly promoted by the Financial Supervisory Commission and the National Development Council and jointly managed by securities peripheral units has more than 100 entries, half of which are from overseas.
In order to gather Taiwan's artificial intelligence innovation energy and accelerate the link between high-quality teams and capital, industry and market resources, the "TiBOOST Innovation Step Plan" jointly promoted by the Financial Supervisory Commission and the National Development Council announced that it will extend the original deadline of September 29 this year to 2:00 pm on October 5, and simultaneously announce the heavyweight final review lineup spanning the technology industry, venture capital, academic research, and international innovation ecosystems, encouraging more AI innovation teams with technical strength and market potential to seize the opportunity to apply.
The "TiBOOST Innovation Step Plan" is jointly managed by the Taiwan Stock Exchange, Taiwan Central Depository and Clearing House, Securities OTC Trading Center and Taiwan Futures Exchange, in collaboration with the Venture Capital Association and the Private Equity Investment Association. The plan combines capital market and innovation and entrepreneurship resources to discover AI startup teams with development potential, assist them in strengthening their business models, link industrial fields and financial resources, and further expand markets and international development opportunities.
In response to the team's demand for more time to complete the proposal, the organizer decided to extend the deadline for submissions to 2 p.m. on October 5. The organizer stated that for AI innovation to move from technology research and development to commercial implementation, in addition to having differentiated technologies, it must also further clarify market demand, application scenarios, business models and growth strategies. The extension of the submission time this time hopes that teams interested in participating can more fully present their technical advantages, product applications, and future development blueprints, and encourage more AI startups, R&D teams, and companies with innovative application solutions to actively participate.
The organizer stated that the TiBOOST selection not only focuses on whether the technology is innovative, but also focuses on whether the team can grasp real industry needs, propose specific application scenarios, and establish a business model that can support long-term development. Through the practical experience and professional perspectives of reviewers in different fields, we hope to select outstanding teams with both technical strength and market potential to help them transform AI innovation into specific industrial and commercial value.
So far, more than 100 cases have been submitted, half of which are from overseas. There are as many as 19 countries submitting submissions. Three of them are even submitted by transnational teams. The largest number of overseas cases are from Canada and South Korea.
