Event Summary
The explosive momentum that the Taiwanese cloud market saw up in 2020 is expected to continue well into 2021, spurred on by the digitalisation demands of COVID-19.
Taipei has emerged as the epicenter of this rapid digital expansion–implementing plans to construct a 5G network and additional data centers within city limits. But the nation is also looking elsewhere, pursuing both domestic and international investments to maintain their competitiveness in the region. Google, for instance, recently selected the central city of Douliu as the site to begin construction of their third data center in Taiwan.
But while some of Asia’s emerging economies like Indonesia and Thailand are making great strides in the cloud market, corporations still prefer mature economies that can provide them with a strong power network and more reliable uptime. Because multiple deep-sea cables between the USA and Asia pass through Taiwan, the island also provides a geographic advantage to the American tech giants. Recent multinational agreements with western nations have cemented Taiwan as an essential partner in the rollout of 5G networks in the APAC region.
On the state level, Taiwan is investing in bolstering five IT sectors: technology and digital, national defense, green energy, renewable energy, and biotech. Specifically, this involves such initiatives as recruiting 80 cyber security officials to establish a national team or creating another “Asian Silicon Valley” comparable to Hsinchu Science Park.
How will these state-level actions impact the private sector? Digitalisation in Taiwan has the potential to impact all aspects of life, from healthcare to city planning. This event will focus on the most compelling trends in the cloud computing and data center industries in Taiwan. Tune in to find out more!
在COVID-19抗疫期間數位化需求的推動下,台灣雲市場在2020年出現的爆炸性增長勢頭預計將持續到2021年。
台北已經成為這種快速數位化擴張的中心–實施了在市區範圍內建設完整的5G網絡和添加額外數據中心的計劃。此外,政府也將目光投向外界,尋求國內外投資,以保持其在該地區的競爭力。其中,近期谷歌選擇了斗六市作為他們在台灣的第三個數據中心的選址。
雖然亞洲一些新興市場,如印尼和泰國等在雲端市場上有了驚人的進展,但普遍企業還是傾向於能夠提供更穩定及可靠的電力網絡和正常運行時間的成熟經濟體與國家。由於美國和亞洲之間有多條深海電纜經過台灣,該島也為美國科技巨頭提供了眾多的地理優勢。近期,台灣與多個西方國家所簽訂的跨國協議,更是彰顯了台灣是在5G網絡正盛行的亞太地區裏的一個重要合作夥伴。
在國家層面上,台灣正在投資五個IT領域:技術和數位化、國防、綠能、可再生能源和生物科技。具體來說,這涉及到招募80名網絡安全人員成立國家團隊,和打造另一個可與新竹科學園區相媲美的 “亞洲矽谷 “等舉措。
這些行動將如何影響私人企業?台灣的數位化也將會影響人民的生活方式,從醫療到城市規劃多方面等。本次活動將聚焦台灣雲計算和數據中心行業最引人注目的趨勢。即刻 登入與了解更多吧!
