It will exhibit over 40 products from 17 award-winning companies, namely, Aaeon, Adlink, Aetina, Aplex, ARBOR, ASUSTOR, Chimei Motor, Datavideo, IBASE, Innodisk, Lanner, Phison, Planet, Transcend, Ufispace, Wincomm, and Zyxel Networks.
They are divided across three zones: Edge AI and Industrial Computers, Next-generation data storage solutions, and Future communication and smart mobility, covering a complete ecosystem from underlying hardware and storage to top-level communications.
The launch of the Taiwan Excellence Pavilion at the Expo was anchored through a Press Meet themed “From Silicon to Solutions: Building India’s AI Infrastructure Backbone with Taiwan”.
Speaking at the occasion, Ms Estela Chen (Chen Yu-Chi), Executive Director, Economic Division, Taipei Economic and Cultural Centre (TECC), India, said, “Bilateral trade between Taiwan and India reached a record high of 12.5 billion US dollars. This growing economic relationship continues to drive investment and deepen business cooperation between the two sides. Taiwanese enterprises are actively investing in India’s electronics manufacturing, semiconductor, and automotive sectors, while Indian businesses are discovering valuable opportunities in Taiwan’s information technology and engineering sectors. India continues to grow rapidly and modernise. The demands for digital infrastructure, smart manufacturing, and resilient supply chains are expanding at a lightning-fast pace.”
Following the opening remarks from Director Chen, representatives of five award-winning Taiwan companies, namely Phison (AI storage), ADLINK & IBASE (Industrial AI), Lanner (Network security), and Wincomm, showcased comprehensive tech applications, demonstrating enterprise applications across industrial automation, edge computing, and high-performance data environments.
Phison highlighted next-generation NAND and aiDAPTIV+ storage solutions for high-performance AI and enterprise applications. ADLINK showcased its EMP series of industrial-grade edge AI platforms for scalable, data-driven deployments. IBASE demonstrated rugged, hybrid edge AI systems powering automation across industries. Lanner presented AI-accelerated network appliances enabling secure, high-performance infrastructure, while Wincomm featured its WTP-9K66 series for reliable edge AI computing in demanding industrial and healthcare environments.
Adding a cultural edge to the showcase, the Taiwan Pavilion featured a futuristic “Taiwan AI Tech Island” rap-and-dance performance, bringing its innovation story to life. This fusion of art and technology offered media a refreshing, human-centric experience, creating a memorable takeaway beyond the tech on display.
Popular actor Taapsee Pannu also attended the launch as a special guest, further amplifying Taiwan Excellence’s growing engagement in India.
