From October 27 to 29, 33 Taiwanese startups will exhibit at the Taiwan Pavilion at SWITCH 2026 in Singapore (Booth Q01, Sands Expo & Convention Centre), as part of Taiwan Tech Week in Singapore. The delegation is led by Startup Island TAIWAN, Taiwan’s national startup brand backed by the National Development Council (NDC), in partnership with Startup Terrace, Hsinchu Science Park Bureau, the Taiwan Stock Exchange (TWSE) and Taiwan Digi Gold Card.

Southeast Asia’s innovation economy is moving from experimentation to execution. Enterprises across the region are looking for technology that can be piloted quickly, integrated into existing operations, and scaled across borders.

That is the opportunity the delegation is bringing to Singapore. It spans four sectors: manufacturing and semiconductors, AI and software, healthcare and biotechnology, and energy and sustainability. Many of the startups are already running pilots or serving paying customers, and they are coming to SWITCH to meet enterprise partners, distributors, and investors from across the region.
