As the global focus shifts to electric vehicles, companies in the automotive industry are looking to tap into new resources, technologies and partners to stay competitive. One country that has been gaining momentum in recent years is Taiwan, which is becoming an increasingly vital player in the electric vehicle automotive industry.

Taiwan has a skilled and experienced workforce of software and hardware engineers who have been trained in the latest technologies. They are well-equipped to handle the complexities of automotive software development, which is becoming increasingly important in the electric vehicle market. Furthermore, they are experts to work with hardware at the chip level, which is critical for the development of electric vehicles and their related software and hardware.

This is why Continental’s co-pace GmbH startup organization has retained Mosaic Venture Lab as its exclusive partner for Taiwan. They are confident that they will find the right talent to help them deliver high-quality software for their electric vehicle projects.

In addition to its skilled workforce, Taiwan is also home to many Tier 1 suppliers, like AUO, which are strategic for automotive OEMs. Additionally, Taiwan also has a large number of Tier 2 suppliers that are increasingly important for automotive OEMs. These suppliers are known for their capabilities in the design and manufacturing of electronic components, driver assistance systems, and semi-autonomous systems. This provides German Tier 1s and OEMs with access to a wide range of suppliers and manufacturers that are critical to the automotive industry and helps to reduce the time and cost of their R&D.

The Taiwan government also provides various subsidies and incentives for the development of electric vehicles, which creates a favorable environment for companies and individuals looking to invest in the industry. Furthermore, Taiwan has strong intellectual property protection laws and regulations, which provide a secure environment for companies that are looking to invest in the development of electric vehicles and their related software and hardware.

In conclusion, Taiwan is a country that is quickly positioning itself as a major player in the electric vehicle automotive industry. Its skilled workforce, high-tech industry, and access to a wide range of suppliers and manufacturers make it an attractive partner for German Tier 1s and OEMs in their electric vehicle projects.
