Taiwan Hardware Show 2023
22 years already...
It has been nearly two decades since the Taiwan Hardware Show ill be held from October 18 to 20, proof if it were needed of the strength of an event that has now established itself as a long-term fixture, and whose durability is not about to fade away.
is 2023 session looks as solid as ever in terms of both visitor and exhibitor numbers, in a sector that is performing very well nationally, where manufacturers are competing with each other in terms of dynamism, novelties and innovations. But beyond the overall range of products and services on offer, this year's show will feature a major innovation.
deed, the show will no longer be held in the heart of the country's two major industrial cities, as has been the case in recent years, such as Taichung or Kaoshiung, but directly in the heart of the capital Taipei at the Nangang Exhibition Center. This decision by the organizers is of the utmost importance in many respects. First and foremost, it gives the event a practical dimension. Taipei is the beating heart of the country, and its reputation, accessibility, ease of transport, two airports (one of which is international in scope) - all these factors provide numerous advantages in terms of travel and accommodation for visitors from abroad, and consequently open up new horizons by facilitating the presence of buyers from various continents, for whom Taipei's reputation is a guarantee of tranquillity, efficiency and convenience. So this decision is far from insignificant. It places the show Taiwan Hardware Show in a move designed to accelerate international trade. If we insist on this decision by the organizers, it's first and foremost because the offer that will be proposed on the platform is perfectly adapted to export markets. Let's not forget that Taiwanese manufacturers have always been focused on global trade, and are constantly proving it in every field, making this territory one of the dragons of the Asian continent. Their top-level performance in many fields is world-renowned, and the object of much covetousness, as in the world of microprocessors.
Tooling one of the spearheads of Taiwanese industry
There's also a cutting-edge field in which the players are always more efficient than ever. This is tooling in all its forms. Taiwan is now a mecca for this industry, which has succeeded in combining quality, reliability and high technology. These choices, which required hours and days of research and development, as well as substantial investment, are now bearing fruit, as the products are now recognized as among the best in the world in their respective fields, be it construction, housing, marine, aviation or automotive. It's hardly surprising, then, that a trade show organizer has accompanied this rise in range and power. This was, and remains, the philosophy of Kaigo, which launched the event under the aegis of its dynamic president Gerd Keim, who is delighted with the progress made so far, and also with the loyalty of exhibitors and partners, which has never wavered over the years. "I can only express my gratitude to all those who have followed us for so long in this adventure. Over the years, the show has become a unique platform for exchanges and meetings for the profession. I would also like to thank the visitors who have been loyal to us for so many years. If we're all meeting in Taipei, it's also because we've noticed that tooling companies are expanding more and more in various regions. So we wanted to make the capital a great gathering place that would suit everyone".
So, here's a statement full of optimism, which is well justified, given the longevity of the show. But the appointment Taiwan Hardware Show, it's also the expression of the dynamism and know-how of manufacturers who are constantly moving forward in terms of innovations, which are increasingly marked by the seal of High Tech, where Taiwanese manufacturers are among the best in the world. Without revealing what visitors will discover, we're sure they'll be treated to a festival of quality innovations.
Health and nature
But it has not escaped our notice that our modern societies are undergoing major changes in many respects. The concepts of well-being and respect for the environment have become universal and essential concerns. All this has not escaped the organizers, who are launching the concept T+SAFE. Behind this term lies the desire to protect the health and safety of users and consumers, through products that comply with dedicated specifications, which will apply to all sectors of activity, from all types of tools to screws, locks and plumbing. Numerous solutions and components will be on offer. The other major theme concerns a subject of ever-increasing importance. This is, unsurprisingly, respect for the environment. It goes without saying that tooling and its production are of prime concern. It goes without saying, therefore, that all manufacturers and industrialists have long been aware of the stakes involved, and will be demonstrating the fruits of their efforts at the 2023 event Taiwan Hardware Show.
Finally, it should be noted that the site will also host the IMT acronym for International Metal Technology Taiwan, which bridges the gap between this cutting-edge industry and the tooling industry, further strengthening the link with cutting-edge technologies.
The return to Taipei looks set to be an auspicious one, with exhibitors and visitors alike unanimously in favour. But there's one thing we mustn't forget: this move to the capital will attract the interest of buyers from all over the world, and that's no mean feat. They'll be able to see first-hand Taiwan's expertise in tooling.
