Today, 66 brands distinguished by the prestigious Taiwan Excellence Award will feature at Taiwan Expo 2017. Taking place during July 26-28 at Saigon Exhibition and Convention Center (SECC), the expo has gathered eight image promotion areas, seven exhibits, 170 booths and 4,000 products.

Organised by the Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA), Taiwan Expo 2017 is an ideal opportunity for Vietnamese consumers to have a closer look at Taiwan's breakthrough products and technologies; in which, Taiwan Excellence Experiencing Zoneis one of the main attractions.

Here, products are on display by 66 leading Taiwanese brands covering multifaceted categories including information communication technology (ICT), home appliances, health care equipment and transportation. Especially, many of which apply the Internet of Things (IoT) solutions – the major platform to produce this expo’s theme “Greener Tech, Smarter Life”.

"By interacting with Taiwan Excellence Award-winning technological products from Taiwan, Vietnamese people will also have more options to enhance their life experiences. After visiting the exhibition, I believe that everyone can find for themselves, their friends or relatives an interesting technological item from Taiwan Excellence as a special gift," Dr. Mai Liem Truc, former Deputy Minister of Information and Communications said at the event.

On the first day of the event, Taiwan Excellence Conference "IoT for Smart Living" was held to discuss the development potential of this platform in Taiwan and Vietnam, simultaneously to introduce the latest IoT solutions.

Addressing the big picture Internet of Things (IoT) in Taiwan, Raymond Chen, director of Strategic Marketing Department of TAITRA said, "According to the International Data Corporation (IDC), IoT marks the beginning of the next worldwide industrial revolution. By 2020, IoT is expected to connect four billion people and generate $7.1 trillion in profits. Taiwan is currently occupying an important position in the global ICT supply chain. Based on the two sides’ traditional friendship, I hope that Taiwan and Vietnam will promote cooperation to provide and develop IoT solutions in education, factory automation, construction or smart home application through this seminar.”

Apart from the exhibition zones and image promotion areas, as well as various conferences on ICT, Taiwan Expo 2017 also presents a range of outstanding performances from singer-actor Minh Hang – celebrity endorser of Taiwan Excellence Campaign in Vietnam, the Taiwanese band Judy’s Harmonica, and the dancing group New Century Culture Arts Groups.
