Taipei, Nov. 13, 2020 — Last year, Taiwan Startup Stadium launched its first-ever #AsiaRocks event in Taiwan. #AsiaRocks aims to bring together prominent ecosystem builders across APAC to provide startups a whole new gateway to Asian markets. Through exhibition, keynote speeches, panel discussions, and networking opportunities, #AsiaRocks offers unique "cross-border, market-entry" content for the attendees. It also provides access to key players and resources from Asian markets, opportunities to deep dive into the different startup ecosystems, a closer look into investment trends, government subsidy programs, and soft-landing services of these regions. The event attracted hundreds of attendees from across different industries.
This year, #AsiaRocks returns in a different format with even more content! #AsiaRocks is joining forces with the largest startup festival in Taiwan – Meet Taipei, from November 18th through 21st. Attendees from overseas can join virtually from November 18th through 30th.
