Taipei Wants to Do First for Mobile Games, Incentives & Subsidies

By Huang Nuan-yun/TIER
The Department of Economic Development Taipei City Government shared bountiful results on its venture business in the Project of Subsidies & Incentives for Taipei Industry. The government ran through 215 projects in 2015. The verified amount of incentives and subsidies is 0.27 billion, which creates a new high in the number of its subsidized cases throughout these years. Currently, Taipei City Government posed an attitude to “let the private business go first and the government will support it” to actively offer assistance in the development of the e-Sport industry. Among the applications of the project of subsidies and incentives, many game business owners received real subsidies for funding. They also invited some creative new venture business from the subsidy manufacturers to participate in the exhibition for some start-up-related activities. They hope this could be a way to help the business owner expand its international collaboration to increase international visibility. In this edition, we have selected some high-quality e-Sport manufacturers to share with you, including X-Legend Entertainment, iDT Digital, Kooco, and Zen Tech, which are all game corporations of this kind. Many expect that more new venture business owners would congregate in Taipei City to run a start-up.
