After a Taiwan-EU economic and trade consultation conference in Brussels on 25 November, the Republic of China Vice Minister of Economic Affairs, Wang Mei-hua, said Taiwan and the EU have set sights on cooperating in online intellectual property rights (IPR) protection. Thanks to Taiwan's efforts in IPR protection, many European firms feel comfortable investing in the Taiwan market, Wang said, adding that the EU wants to work with Taiwan to carry out raids on cyber IPR violations in the future.
The economic and trade consultation meeting also addressed the possibility for Taiwan and the EU to cooperate in a wide range of industries, such as offshore wind power development, smart machinery production and the circular economy.
