To support the goal of achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 and promote the development of domestic green technology, Linkou Startup Park and Aiyuan Startup Park jointly organized the “Greentech Challenge Awards Competition.” Since its launch in 2022, the competition has seen the participation of 45 domestic and international companies as question posers, covering topics related to green technology and net-zero carbon emissions, resulting in over 260 startup proposals. This year witnessed increased participation from international companies and a doubling of the number of question-posing companies compared to the inaugural edition. The number of startup registrations also showed significant growth. Ultimately, 24 startups stood out and were recognized at the awards ceremony. In addition to receiving a reward of NT$800,000, they also gained the potential opportunity to become ecosystem partners with the participating companies.

Some notable success stories include the collaboration between The System Group and the startup AMGing CO., LTD, which proposed a non-destructive (non-intrusive) hardware and software energy-saving solution. This collaboration has achieved significant results, leading to further cooperation between Taiwan Landseed International Hospital and the startup MASTA Communication jointly discussing the hospital’s intelligent surgical environment system, utilizing AI for centralized control to automate lighting, air conditioning, and other energy-consuming devices. Juyang Industry partnered with the startup Meta Intelligence, successfully integrating virtual characters with clothing through a technology that generates high-fidelity images in just 7 seconds. This collaboration helped Juyang Industry save design costs and expand into the fashion application field.
