A Taiwanese business delegation of more than 100 company representatives is in Poland this week to pursue opportunities related to the reconstruction of Ukraine, participating in the Rebuild Ukraine Exhibition held in Warsaw from November 13–14.
The mission is led by Deputy Economics Minister Cynthia Kiang, who said the Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA) organised the visit to help Taiwanese companies engage directly in rebuilding efforts for Ukraine, which shares a border with Poland.
According to Kiang, Poland’s geographic position makes Warsaw a strategic gateway not only to the Ukrainian market but also to the broader European Union. Many companies in the delegation are eager to contribute to Ukraine’s reconstruction, while others are evaluating new business opportunities across Europe.
Taiwan Pavilion Makes Its Debut at Rebuild Ukraine
For the first time since the trade fair began five years ago, Taiwan established a national pavilion at the exhibition. It was also the only Asian pavilion at the event.
The Taiwan Pavilion showcases the country’s strengths in:
The MOEA said the pavilion highlights Taiwan’s advanced industrial capabilities and demonstrates its readiness to support Ukraine’s long-term recovery.
Taiwan’s ICT Strengths on Display
Speaking at the opening, Kiang emphasized Taiwan’s comprehensive ICT ecosystem and global supply chain, noting the country's reputation for flexibility, customisation and timely delivery.
She stressed that these capabilities make Taiwan a reliable partner for Ukraine’s reconstruction, especially in areas requiring advanced technology and precision equipment.
Strengthening Regional Business Links
The MOEA also hosted a “Taiwan Night” networking event, bringing together around 200 representatives from Taiwan, Poland and Ukraine, including government officials, lawmakers and business leaders. The gathering focused on partnership opportunities across industry, technology and energy sectors.
Beyond the exhibition, the delegation visited Poland’s three key ICT hubs — Łódź, Katowice and Wrocław, often referred to as the Poland ICT Triangle. The visits offered insight into Poland’s growing tech ecosystem and potential areas for collaboration.
Taiwan Signals Strong Interest in Closer Economic Cooperation
Kiang noted that this is the largest Taiwanese business delegation ever to visit Poland, underscoring Taiwan’s commitment to deeper cooperation with the European country. She expressed hope that stronger bilateral engagement will create a “virtuous cycle” benefiting both economies.
Taiwan aims to expand ties with democratic partners to develop non-China supply chains and strengthen its role as a trusted global collaborator. Taiwanese renewable energy companies are particularly interested in working with Polish firms, while Taiwan’s AI-enhanced machinery sector sees significant opportunities in Poland’s growing smart manufacturing landscape.
