In line with the Executive Yuan's decision to extend the "Three Major Programs for Investing in Taiwan" through 2028, the Bureau of Industrial Parks (BIP) of the Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA) is committed to providing higher-quality industrial space to help enterprises anchor their operations in Taiwan. On the 26th, BIP held a press conference to showcase the achievements of its dual-engine strategy of industrial park development and park renewal. To date, 9 new industrial parks have been launched, with a total development area exceeding 560 hectares, expected to generate more than NT$100 billion in additional industrial output value and create approximately 30,000 jobs. At the same time, BIP has initiated the "Revitalization of Technology Industrial Parks Program," investing nearly NT$2 billion in its first phase to revitalize underutilized land. This effort has released 2.25 hectares of turnover land and attracted nearly NT$19 billion in private investment. Injecting new momentum into Taiwan's industrial development.
BIP Director-General Yang Chih-Ching stated that land supply is the Bureau's most critical mission-not only for Taiwan's current industrial layout but also as a cornerstone for future industrial development and upgrading. In response to the extension of the "Three Major Programs for Investing in Taiwan" programs, BIP is accelerating the preparation of industrial space through both new park development and park renewal. "We are clearly seeing genuine demand from enterprises and continued investment activity. This is a strong and unmistakable signal of market-driven economic layout," Director-General Yang noted.
Regarding progress in new industrial park development, 5 major industrial parks-Zhongpu, Shueishang, Sinshih, North Kaohsiung, Baojhong-as well as 4 major Technology Industrial Parks-- Kaohsiung Software Park Phase II, the expansion of the Pingtung Technology Industrial Park, Nanzih Technology Industrial Park Phase III, and Renwu Technology Industrial Park-are currently underway. Among these, the Baojhong Industrial Park and Renwu Technology Industrial Park are in the application stage, while the remaining parks have entered either the development or investment promotion phases. Notably, the Shueishang and Sinshih Industrial Parks have already reached 100% occupancy, while North Kaohsiung has exceeded 90%, underscoring the strong demand from industry for high-quality industrial space. To ensure the sustainable use of land resources, most new parks have adopted a "lease-only, no-sale" policy, effectively guiding land utilization and supporting the long-term development of industrial clusters.
As for the renewal of existing parks, BIP is focusing on the Kaohsiung Cianzhen, Nanzih, and Taichung Tanzih Technology Industrial Parks, promoting comprehensive building renovation and land reconfiguration to create modern office and factory spaces that meet contemporary industrial needs. Under the Revitalization Program, BIP has allocated a special budget of NT$1.991 billion to acquire and repurpose underutilized factory buildings. Following renewal, an estimated 135,000 square meters of floor space will be released, creating nearly 2,000 jobs and serving as a key driver of local industrial upgrading.
Positive feedback from enterprises was also highlighted at the event. Lee Shu-Hsia, Vice President of ASE, shared that the government's efficiency in land release and administrative coordination has significantly reduced procedural burdens, allowing companies to focus more on technological and production line upgrades. Chen Chin-Shi, Vice President of Tong Yang Industry, noted that the infrastructure and transportation convenience provided by BIP support the transformation of traditional industries and talent recruitment. "During site selection, BIP's rapid response was tangible and highly supportive for businesses," he said.
In addition to space development and renewal, BIP also announced its latest investment promotion results. As of now, 166 investment projects have been facilitated this year, with a total investment amount reaching NT$174.5 billion, including expanded investments from major enterprises such as ASE, Foxconn(Dynamic Computing Technology Co., Ltd.) and Yung-Shine Electric Co., Ltd. These investments span emerging sectors such as semiconductors, Ai and smart manufacturing, positioning industrial parks as strategic hubs for advanced manufacturing and innovative R&D.
BIP emphasized that it will continue to enhance land preparation efficiency and investment services, leveraging locational advantages and policy incentives to drive industrial upgrading, talent return, and increased investment. The goal is to build a globally competitive "Manufacturing Base in Taiwan," providing stable investment space for both Taiwanese and international enterprises, while demonstrating the government's firm commitment to keeping industries rooted in Taiwan and strengthening local supply chains.
