Chuan-Ku Board Raises NT$7.3 Billion; TPEx and Hsin-Chi Cloud Launch AI Ecosystem Event on August 26

TPEx has partnered with Hsin-Chi Cloud Company (7747-TW) to co-host the 'AI Transformation and Growth for Startups' series, aiming to unlock the growth potential of SMEs and startups. Through its multi-tiered market structure—from the Chuan-Ku Board to Emerging Stock and then to the Listed Market—TPEx continues to strengthen support and connectivity within the startup ecosystem. To date, the Chuan-Ku Board has successfully facilitated the raising of NT$7.3 billion in cumulative funding.

The event series, themed 'AI × Startup × Cloud × Global,' will kick off on August 26 and September 4 at the Taipei International Convention Center. It aims to precisely convey capital market resources and attract more high-quality enterprises to join.

To continuously support SMEs and startups in improving operational systems, enhancing brand visibility, and strengthening fundraising capabilities, TPEx has long established a robust multi-tiered capital market framework. As the entry platform to the capital market, the Chuan-Ku Board has achieved remarkable results over its 11 years. As of July 2026, it has attracted 290 companies, with 37 successfully transitioning to public issuance and 34 smoothly listing on the Emerging Stock Market. The total amount raised has reached NT$7.3 billion, validating the Chuan-Ku Board’s powerful role as a hub connecting startups to capital markets.

Beyond the Chuan-Ku Board, TPEx’s Emerging Stock and Listed Markets also demonstrate strong capital attraction and market momentum. As of July 2026, 359 companies are listed on the Emerging Stock Market, and 890 companies are listed on the Listed Market. The Emerging Stock Market combines incubation and fundraising functions with a transparent price discovery mechanism, serving as a critical preparatory market for startups before moving to the main board. Meanwhile, the Listed Market boasts two golden advantages—high trading turnover and high P/E ratios—ensuring strong capital flow and effectively highlighting the value of quality SMEs.

In response to the wave of artificial intelligence and the need for global expansion, Hsin-Chi Cloud, guided by its core mission 'A Friend to Startups (F2SU),' has established deep collaborations with over 180 high-growth startups through technology integration, cloud resources, and business matchmaking. For this series, Hsin-Chi Cloud has invited TPEx as the advisory body to jointly plan the 'AI Transformation and Growth for Startups' events, focusing on core issues such as AI implementation, fundraising, and international expansion, and inviting the broader startup ecosystem to participate.

The first two events—'Lessons from Others' (Strategy) and 'Stockpile Resources' (Fundraising)—will be held on August 26 and September 4, 2026, at the Taipei International Convention Center. They will deeply explore practical experiences from technology implementation to organizational growth, and from value validation to capital expansion. By enhancing cross-sector exchanges between TPEx and the startup ecosystem, the events aim to communicate the supportive fundraising environment of the Chuan-Ku, Emerging, and Listed Markets, further encouraging high-quality startups to list and enter Taiwan’s capital market.
