The Future is… 400+

Look back with us at a successful Light It Up event with many Taiwanese landmarks lighted up in orange

Special thanks to all city governments involved: Taipei, Taichung, Tainan, Keelung and Kaohsiung.

Light It Up 點亮台灣

And we mean that quite literally!

To close of the 2024 Netherlands Year of Innovation and Culture, we lighted up Taipei 101 yesterday in our national color, orange

At the Light It Up Reception, our Representative Mr. Guido Tielman also reflected on our shared history and all our 2024 activities: “We are looking to the next 400 years, where we see many opportunities for cooperation between the Netherlands and Taiwan in the field of business, innovation and cultural exchange.”
