Call continues for Australian submissions to "Go Healthy with Taiwan"
8 July 2025: The Taiwan Trade Centre in Sydney is continuing to encourage Australian health innovators, companies, entrepreneurs and researchers to make submissions to its "Go Healthy with Taiwan" campaign.
The deadline for submissions is August 14, with six finalists being flown to Taiwan to present their proposals and three winners receiving a prize of $USD30,000 each.
"Go Healthy with Taiwan" is a global initiative that engages institutions, enterprises, researchers and entrepreneurs from around the world to submit innovative proposals that integrate Taiwan’s high-quality health products and holistic solutions. The objective is to fund projects that jointly improve global health standards and promote well-being in cities, communities and business environments across the globe.
Dr Christian Criado-Perez, who is a Research and Insights Associate at the UNSW Business Insights Institute, is encouraging academics in the University of NSW Business School to consider the program.
"Our Institute has made a conscious effort to place a lot more of our energy and focus on building relationships with external partners and to focus on work with social impact. So Go Healthy with Taiwan is a perfect example of the kind of activity that we as a Business School want to get involved in,” said Dr Criado-Perez Chanin.
According to Mr David Cheng-Wei Wu, Director-General of the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Sydney, Australia is a very important partner to Taiwan. "We hope that through this program we can source ideas from both Taiwan and Australia, so we can work together to make the ecosystem of healthcare better in the future."
People and organisations with ideas that would benefit from the inclusion of a Taiwanese partner are encouraged to visit the website, identify a Taiwanese enterprise that fits their idea, make a submission and then be in the running for the prizes and the trips to Taiwan.
