COMPUTEX (Computer Expo) has a long history, having been established in 1981 as the Taipei Computer Show. Over the decades, COMPUTEX has witnessed the development and changes in the global ICT industry. In recent years, COMPUTEX has added a dedicated startup and innovation exhibition area called InnoVEX. InnoVEX was first launched in 2016 to provide a platform for startups to showcase their innovative products and technologies, network with investors and potential partners, and participate in pitch contests. InnoVEX has grown significantly, hosting 217 startups from 22 countries with 240 booths in 2016, and expanding to 400 new startup companies from various international pavilions and accelerators in 2024. InnoVEX has become an integral part of the overall COMPUTEX event, allowing the trade show to cover not just established technology companies but also the latest innovations from the startup ecosystem. It provides startups an opportunity to connect with potential partners, investors, and buyers across the ICT, IoT, AI, and broader technology supply chains. The COMPUTEX organizer, TAITRA, also collaborates with startup accelerators worldwide, such as inviting the winner of the AlphaLab Gear National Hardware Cup in the United States to attend InnoVEX.
