ITRI - is a non-profit R&D organization engaging
in applied research and technical service. It was founded in 1973 by the Ministry
of Economic Affairs (MOEA) to attend to the technological needs of Taiwan's
industrial development. ITRI has played a vital role in the transformation
of the economy from an agriculture-based model to an industrial one. By year
2001 it has grown to a 6000 people operation, and serves as the technical
center for industry and an unofficial arm of the government's industrial policies
in Taiwan. Backed by its broad research scope and close industrial ties,
ITRI is becoming an increasingly active member in the global industrial R&D
community.http://www.itri.org.tw Introduction of Hsinchu Scientific Industry Park 
Science parks are established to introduce
high-tech industries and attract talent to Taiwan, promote the upgrading of
Taiwanese industries, balance regional development and drive national economic
development. One of three science parks existing in northern, central and
southern Taiwan, the Hsinchu Science Park(HSP) is primarily focused on semiconductors;
meanwhile, the Central Taiwan Science Park is focused on aviation, precision
machinery, and optoelectronics, while the Southern Taiwan Science Park is
focused on optoelectronics. Consequently, each of these science parks possesses
its own respective core technological advantages.Since the HSP was established in December 1980, the government has invested US$1,679 million on park infrastructure and facilities. A total of 384 high-tech companies had been established in the park by the end of 2004, a total of 632 hectares had been developed for the HSP proper, plus an additional 141 hectares for the Jhunan Park. During its 24 year history, the HSP has focused both on research and production, thus profoundly impacting the local economic development and giving the HSP an international reputation and establishing it as a model imitated by other countries. http://www.sipa.gov.tw |
