説明を展開
Taiwan's NT$10bn (~US$330m) AI Startup Programme is a venture-capital support line for new ventures. The funds typically flow via the NDC's National Startup Fund or NSTC programmes to AI startup teams. Assessment: NT$10bn is a significant injection relative to Taiwan VC scale (total Taiwan VC investment ran ~NT$30bn in 2024), but the local startup ecosystem is hardware / IC / semiconductor heavy; pure-software AI startups remain weak. Whether this fund actually produces a couple of homegrown AI software unicorns is the key variable for assessing Taiwan's "software catch-up".
