Taiwan’s digital economy has reached an annual output of NT$800 billion (approx. US$24.36 billion) and is projected to surpass NT$1 trillion by 2026, driven by the rapid expansion of AI applications, according to Yen-nun Huang, Minister of the Ministry of Digital Affairs (MODA). However, at a press conference on February 10, Huang expressed concerns that recent budget cuts to government subsidies could hinder this growth.
