Thank You!

Thank you to all our sponsors, speakers and delegates for making the inaugural AVCJ Private Equity & Venture Forum \ Taiwan a wonderful success. Taiwan's first and only international private equity and venture forum saw 275 senior local and overseas representatives congregate at the Shangri-La's Far Eastern Plaza Hotel in Taipei, including general partners, institutional investors, corporations and professional advisers.

Highlights of the two-day conference included the keynote address from the Commissioner of the Financial Supervisory Commission, Dr. Shyan Yuan Lee, who shared his views on the future prospects of private equity and venture development in the island, whilst also providing a regulatory update under the new government.

At the Gala Dinner, the forum was honoured to have Mayor Hau Lung-Bin of Taipei City Government address the competitive advantages of investing in Taiwan and the reasons behind private equity's rise in Taiwan.

Next year's event will take place in Taipei in early May. We look forward to seeing you there.
