In the segments of the "Digital Transformation," "Space Technology," and "Precision Health" trend forums, the participation of international speakers is also the most enthusiastic. The lineup includes government officials, industry alliances, and experts from benchmark industries, engaging in in-depth discussions on key issues from an international trend perspective, bridging industries and synchronizing with the international market.
Three Major Trend Forums Linking the Global Community; NVIDIA and Amazon Web Services as Keynote Speakers
The first day (October 14th) saw the Digital Transformation Trend Forum inviting Anett Numa, a member of the Estonian Digital Transformation Center, and Arvo Ott, Director and Chief Technologist of the e-Governance Academy of Estonia. They presented on topics such as "How Digital Government Services Enhance Industrial Development Opportunities?" and "Digital Nation Development Backbone - Introduction to X Road," sharing how a small Baltic country built the world's most advanced digital society, becoming a global benchmark.
The Space Technology Trend Forum on October 15th invited Petr Bares, Chairman of the Czech Space Industry Alliance, a driving force behind the joint space technology industry cooperation between Taiwan and the Czech Republic. Christian Patouraux, Founder and CEO of Singapore's Kacific Broadband Satellite Group, also participated, sharing their successful experiences on the topic of "The Boundless Space Industry: How to Seize Opportunities in the Technology Supply Chain."
In recent years, digital technology has impacted the healthcare industry, and cross-domain integration has become a trend. On October 19th, the Precision Health Trend Forum will feature two exciting keynote speeches. Dr. Wilson To, Global Head of Healthcare and Life Sciences Genomics at Amazon Web Services (AWS), will present on "How AWS Adds Value to Personalized Healthcare Services." Mona Flores, Global AI Healthcare Director at NVIDIA, will present on "Entering the Era of AI Healthcare: How NVIDIA Revolutionizes the Healthcare Industry."
Real-time Online Business Matching; AI-Assisted Precision Matchmaking
To fully leverage the effects of digital transformation and seize digital matchmaking opportunities, this year's event extended to a ten-day online exhibition. Through 24/7 dynamic audiovisual displays and online activities, online visitors can experience the exhibition as if they were physically present, breaking down the barriers of time and geography. The world will once again witness Taiwan's internationally acclaimed academic and research capabilities, showcasing Taiwan's robust technological strength in the post-pandemic era.
Furthermore, during the exhibition, the online business matchmaking function can be used for appointments or business pairing. This not only facilitates real-time discussions but also supports multi-layered online precise connections, such as group meetings and one-on-one sessions. The use of big data analysis and digital trajectory collection further enhances the potential for customer acquisition and improves matchmaking efficiency. After the exhibition, marketing and promotion can continue seamlessly, bridging to next year's "Future Technology Pavilion."
Visitors Get Tech Vouchers; Interactive Rankings Foster Continuous Engagement
To add different elements to this year's exhibition, the organizers used research projects guided by the Ministry of Science and Technology to design three types of activities. These include distributing technology vouchers for visiting the Future Technology Pavilion, designing interactive rankings to promote online communication, and using QR codes for lucky draws to attract participation in forums and technical presentations. These creative arrangements add diverse and lively colors to the 2021 Future Technology Pavilion, and also contribute to boosting online exhibition traffic.
