TAIPEI, TAIWAN - Aiming to further the bilateral trade and investment between Taiwan and China, the World Trade Center Taipei and World Trade Center Quanzhou (WTC Quanzhou) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in Taipei on August 6, 2015. WTC Taipei President and CEO, Win-Jung Huang, and WTC Quanzhou Chairman, Ma-Shui Kang, represented their respective WTCs in inking the pact to promote cross-strait business exchange, trade missions, and market information sharing.

“The Asia-Pacific region is where World Trade Centers Association (WTCA) membership is growing the most rapidly,” said Huang. “WTC Taipei has been a WTCA member for over 30 years and has played significant roles in the Association's activities. This MoU will further enhance our cooperation with WTC Quanzhou. In particular, WTC Taipei would like to invite WTC Quanzhou's delegations to join our trade shows such as Computex Taipei, Taipei Cycle, and the Taiwan Trade Fairs in China,” he added.

WTC Quanzhou was established in 2013 as a provider of business services and an organizer of enterprise matchmaking, networking, and charity events. Quanzhou is not only the economic and cultural center of the Fujian Province, but also the starting point of the “Maritime Silk Road” and a key part of the “Belt and Road Initiative.” The MoU is expected to enable TWTC to work closer with WTC Quanzhou on enhancing regional economic and trade cooperation.

Established in 1970, WTCA is a global trade promotion organization with 332 members worldwide. WTC Taipei joined the WTCA family in 1981, and has been a devoted member supporting the Association’s activities ever since. WTC Taipei Chairman Francis K.H. Liang was elected as a WTCA Board member this year.

In 2012, WTC Taipei marked a milestone in WTCA history by achieving “Best Practice” in all 8 categories of the WTCA certification program. It was the highest number of honors that WTCA had ever awarded to a single member in its 45-year history. WTC Taipei was recognized in the categories of Business Services, Tenant Services, Exhibit Facilities & Services, WTC Club Facilities, Conference Facilities, Group Trade Missions, Trade Information Services, and Trade Education Services.
