Premier Cho Jung-tai stated today at the opening and awards ceremony of the "2026 Touch Taiwan Series Exhibition" that the ultimate goal of the AI Ten Major Constructions is to enable Taiwanese citizens to see AI technology, use AI, and use AI with peace of mind. For example, promoting sovereign AI and various computing centers to enter a smart living circle for all citizens, with AI services available anytime, anywhere, allowing AI to enter various services in the public and private sectors. This is Taiwan's ultimate goal after achieving a leading position in hardware manufacturing, moving towards software design and smart applications.
He said that the Ministry of Economic Affairs has established an industrial competitiveness guidance team, which will assist 140,000 enterprises in industrial upgrading over the next two years. The government is also progressing with large technology industries. He also hopes to enable small and medium-sized enterprises to support each other in funding and technology, and to cultivate talent and technology more abundantly.
Cho Jung-tai stated that through the Touch Taiwan Smart Display Exhibition, he once again saw the cohesion and evolution of national strength, with technology advancing rapidly. The panel does not represent a cold panel, "I think it is a warm pair of eyes," through which and the human-machine interface, we see that the future of life will move towards one direction of improvement, "connecting the past and seeing the future," which is a great help that the display industry brings to human life in the future.
Cho Jung-tai pointed out that the Touch Taiwan Smart Display Exhibition has 250 manufacturers and booths from various countries around the world, exhibiting various contents; Taiwan's technological level is advancing rapidly and continuously climbing, not only displaying display technology but also entering the field of advanced packaging technology.
He emphasized that the development history of the display industry is quite long, and it is a very important pillar of economic development, with an employed population exceeding 150,000 people and an output value of more than NT$1 trillion, which is a very dazzling trillion-dollar industry plan. The panel industry is now moving towards high value-added and differentiation, progressing in terms of value rather than competing on price. Continuous innovation, upgrading, and transformation are absolutely necessary.
He pointed out that panel displays are ubiquitous in life; everyone now has at least one panel on their person, including mobile phones, tablets, laptops, watches, and when taking a car or watching TV at home, even refrigerators have them, deeply integrated into every aspect of our lives.
He pointed out that the electronic paper technology of displays is very special. Taiwan has progressed from black and white to color, from small sizes to large sizes, driving many new products. Taiwan's leading electronic paper technology is unique in the world, with a market share as high as 90%.
In addition, Micro LED (Micro Light Emitting Diode) technology continues to improve in brightness, resolution, and transparency, applied in smart cockpits and smart glasses, allowing users to feel the progress of display technology.
Cho Jung-tai stated that the latest fan-out panel-level packaging technology improves existing packaging technology and light transmission, which is a newer technological evolution. This optical communication is an essential technology for future AI data centers and high-computing centers, and it is also part of the national development plan.
He pointed out that the Executive Yuan has announced 13 strategic industries this year, each of which has a great demand relationship with displays. For example, in semiconductors, Taiwan has achieved significant leadership in fan-out panel-level packaging, and optical communication panel antennas are also leading simultaneously. Other areas such as security control, military industry, robotics, medical, and basic public infrastructure are all important parts of human-machine interfaces and applications.
