The New Southbound Policy service center was launched by the Cabinet-level Office of Trade Negotiations Jan. 2 in Taipei City, providing Taiwan-based businesses with key information on various programs under the initiative and highlighting economic opportunities in target countries.
By creating an efficient communication platform between the government and industry, the unit aims to bolster private sector participation in advancing the policy, according to the OTN. It comprises service hotlines and a website spotlighting projects in such areas as financial support, international exchanges and talent cultivation.
Tsai Yun-chung, head of the new center, said it will initially seek to foster deeper understanding of the initiative, help local companies identify demand and resources in overseas markets, and develop Taiwan public-private sector partnerships to jointly explore business and trade opportunities.
