Taiwan aims to further strengthen its relationship with the UAE by introducing global Taiwanese ICT brands in the country.

As per Taiwan's Computer Association, the exports of electronics and ICT products grew 14.56 per cent annually to Dh415 billion in 2014, which signifies the global adoption of Taiwanese brands. The primary facet on the strengthening growth between UAE and Taiwan is the successful increase in the exports of devices like smartphones and tablets from Taiwan.

As more people are expected to flock to Dubai to witness the display of the world's latest technological inventions, the Bureau of Foreign Trade (BOFT) of Taiwan and Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA) announced its formal participation at Gitex 2015. Taiwan aims to intensify its partnership with Middle East's ICT sector through this platform.

"UAE is an integral part of our ICT growth strategy as we constantly introduce our cutting-edge products to the UAE market. UAE is always one of the top markets in our list when it comes to the best places to introduce the latest technology as the country is fast-paced and is one of the best IT investment destinations," said Shyh Perng Chang, director of the Taiwan Trade Center Dubai.

Over the last few years, Taiwan has been strengthening its ties with the UAE. The event in 2015 is expected to garner a double digit growth in trade relations between the two nations. Global and local technology stakeholders and leaders are expected to attend the showcase. The 35th edition of Gitex Technology Week, with the theme 'The Internet: Future of Everything', is expected to be the most influential technology event in the world.
