As the core of the global AI supply chain, Taiwan is not only a powerhouse of the technology industry but also a talent market of world-class strategic significance. This session will provide an in-depth analysis of Taiwan’s job market, highlighting the key qualities that enterprises seek in overseas professionals, while also drawing on academic research to reveal the main incentives driving high-tech and AI talent to return to Taiwan. Beyond the corporate perspective, we will also present the considerations of professionals themselves, creating a dialogue between both sides. Furthermore, the session will position Taiwan within the broader global competition for talent—comparing it with hubs such as Singapore, India, and South Korea—to underscore Taiwan’s potential as a stage for the next generation of international professionals. Ultimately, we will offer actionable recommendations to help enterprises attract and retain cross-border talent, while enabling professionals to maximize their impact in both Taiwan and the global market.
