InnoPad Taipei to Launch in 2026 as Taiwan's Startup Gateway
The Taipei City Government has announced that “InnoPad Taipei,” located in Nangang, will officially open in 2026. Spanning approximately 5,300 square meters, the hub benefits from Nangang's strategic location at the convergence of three major rail systems and its proximity to the Neihu Technology Park and Nangang Software Park technology clusters. InnoPad Taipei will serve as a cornerstone of the city's “Three Arrows for Startups” policy, integrating three major strategies—funding support, talent cultivation, and market matchmaking. The hub aims to become "the first landing point for startups entering Taiwan," providing entrepreneurial teams with comprehensive support from initial setup through growth to international expansion.
InnoPad Taipei is more than just office space; it’s designed as a dynamic platform for creative exchange and cross-disciplinary collaboration. The hub features three functional zones: a co-working area, independent office spaces, and meeting & co-creation facilities. These zones offer diverse options tailored to startups at different stages, creating a flexible workspace charged with creative energy. To encourage teams to settlle in, those signing a one-year contract will receive complimentary company registration services, streamlining the incorporation process. International startups with a clear landing plan are also welcome to apply and will receive professional consulting support to help them quickly integrate into Taiwan's market. The city will also bring in domestic and international incubators and corporate partners, strengthening the hub's global collaboration capacity and industry connections.
For startup mentorship, InnoPad Taipei will host internationally-oriented accelerators with proven track records, providing coaching, resource connections, matchmaking opportunities, and investment facilitation—further fostering co-creation between startups and established enterprises.
InnoPad Taipei's positioning goes beyond being a workspace—it's designed to cultivate an ecosystem where creative ideas become products and services, and innovation grows into viable businesses. The hub will regularly host international startup showcases, matchmaking events, and hands-on training programs to attract global entrepreneurs and investors seeking opportunities in Taipei. Whether you're a newly founded team, a company seeking partners, or an international startup looking to establish a presence in Taipei, you'll find the resources and connections you need here.
“We hope everyone who chooses to start a business in Taipei can feel the support and energy this city offers,” the city government stated. InnoPad Taipei is much more than a building—it symbolizes Taipei’s readiness to embrace the next wave of innovation. Through a robust entrepreneurial environment and a diverse international resource network, Taipei will build an open, welcoming, and competitive startup ecosystem, attracting innovative forces from around the world and becoming a truly global entrepreneur-friendly city.
