The 2021 Taiwan Innotech Expo (TIE) will take place this October 14 to 16, and registration for this show will begin April 20. With many government agencies giving their full support to the show, TIE has become one of the top innovation and invention shows in Asia, and is a must-attend event for aspiring inventors.
Providing up-and-coming inventors with the perfect opportunity, TIE’s Invention Competition pits the newest products on display for the prestigious Platinum Award, providing an incentive for innovators to go the extra mile and bring the best products to the largest stage and get recognized globally.

Last year’s TIE was an astounding success, with over 460 exhibitors and nearly 1000 exhibition booths occupied, not only showing Taiwan’s innovators’ capabilities, but also that the post-pandemic normalcy is on the return. TIE 2021 looks to build on this success, and will feature three main exhibits: Future Technology, Innovation Pilot, and Sustainability. Thousands of products will be pitted against each other for prestigious medals and recognition in hopes of becoming the hottest new item on the market. In addition to the battle at the showground, many forums, seminars, and other events will take place during the show. Also, the first ever OMO (Online-Merge-Offline) platform combining the in-person TIE with a virtual version, providing buyers an opportunity to interact with inventors, and see inventions from a unique perspective, ensuring that all participants can be a part of the most important invention show in Asia.
