The National Development Council (NDC) of Taiwan plays a central role in the island's startup ecosystem through the National Development Fund, which anchors investments in venture capital firms and directly supports Taiwan's innovation economy.
NDC's startup initiatives include the Taiwan Startup Terrace, Asia Silicon Valley Development Plan, and various grant and investment programs that provide non-dilutive funding and ecosystem support for domestic and international founders building in Taiwan.
As the government body responsible for Taiwan's economic planning and startup policy, NDC shapes the regulatory environment, incentive structures, and infrastructure that make Taiwan an increasingly attractive base for technology entrepreneurship.
