Qualcomm is a company built on the spirit of innovation and drives programs globally that encourage innovative ideas and local ecosystem development. Recently, Qualcomm launched startup programs in various regions-including the Qualcomm Innovate in Taiwan Challenge (QITC), the QualcommDesign in India Challenge (QDIC) and the Qualcomm Vietnam Innovation Challenge (QVIC) to accelerate innovation in the global startup ecosystem. The Qualcomm® Innovate in Taiwan Challenge (QITC) 2022 is a continuation of an initiative by Qualcomm, run by its affiliate Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. (QTI), that was started in 2019 to support the development of Taiwan’s ICT ecosystem by identifying and nurturing innovative, new small and medium-sized companies and products. This Qualcomm initiative is a collaboration with Taiwan’s National Science and Technology Council (NSTC) and Taiwan Tech Arena (TTA) to support the growth of Taiwanese startups in areas such as 5G, cellular connected IoT, machine learning, smart cities, and multimedia with our mobile platforms and technologies. This year, 10 shortlisted teams of QITC 2022 will participate in Meet Taipei 2022 by showcasing their innovative technologies and applications. Besides, 6 startups from QDIC and QVIC will participate in Meet Taipei online together to expand cross-region exchanges among startups in Asia and create links to international markets.
