STARTBOARD

林致孚 Unform Lin CEO

We have a true story to share, which happened before STARTBOARD was established. There was an Indian Ph.D. student from NCTU specializing in computer science reaching out to us for startup resources, but back in the time, we were unsure about it for international talents. Then after graduating from NCTU with a full scholarship provided, this Indian talent devoted himself to the IC industry in Taiwan for two years and leave to Australia, serving as a professor. That’s why we founded STARTBOARD, in order to see international talents stay and pursue their dreams in Taiwan instead of leaving. We are dedicated to narrowing down the gap for international entrepreneurs to localize their business models and turn their ideas into reality.

胡聿威 Willy Hu Marketing Deputy Director

I serve as the Marketing Deputy Director of STARTBOARD. In the past three years, I saw and reviewed a lot of Foreign startups who are eager to stay in Taiwan for their business. But the pain point usually will be they didn’t fully understand the Taiwanese market, thus they would not sustainably survive in the Taiwanese market. So through our expertise and service, we hope we can support foreign startups sustainably operating in Taiwan.

I serve as the Indonesian Business Development Specialist in STARTBOARD, and my role is to connect with various Indonesian students’ associations in Taiwan, as well as Taiwanese startups having a vision to expand to Indonesian market and vice versa. Through my experiences organizing and spearheading various events in the NTU Indonesian Students Association, I can see future potential for young Indonesians to have their business ideas established in Taiwan, and the possibility for various Taiwanese startups to expand their businesses in the growing Indonesian market.
