Salesforce, the global enterprise software giant, hosted Salesforce Innovation Day Taipei on November 13, unveiling its latest agent-based AI platform, Agentforce 360, designed to help companies accelerate their journey toward the "Agentic Enterprise" era.
Taiwan-based automotive software developer AutoSys Intelligent is broadening its horizons beyond self-driving cars. Building on its core expertise in autonomous driving systems, the company plans to extend its intelligent software and system technologies to drones, robotics, and other AI-driven platforms, marking the start of a multidimensional growth strategy.
As one of the most demanding testing grounds for AI, autonomous driving technology has become a high-security laboratory where next-generation AI applications are forged. Analysts note that as much as 50 to 70 percent of the algorithms used in self-driving systems can be efficiently transferred to non-automotive fields, giving established players a distinct "spillover advantage" over newcomers. From Tesla to Chinese automakers and established brands in Europe, the United States, Japan, and South Korea, automotive AI is now extending into adjacent industries such as smart manufacturing, robotics, and unmanned aerial systems (UAVs).
Since Huawei debuted the CloudMatrix 384 (CM384) in mid-2025, China's supernode race has taken centre stage in the global AI infrastructure arena. According to SemiAnalysis, Chinese AI supernodes have surpassed Nvidia in several integration metrics, cementing the country's fast-rising influence in high-performance compute architecture.
With demand for AI servers accelerating, Taiwan's electronics supply chain is preparing for an unusually strong fourth quarter in 2025 and a 2026 first half that shows little sign of the traditional slowdown.
Taiwan's major materials distributors — Niching Industrial, Wah Lee Industrial, Topco Scientific (TSC), and Chang Wah Electromaterials (CWE) — have released their latest earnings reports and outlooks for the fourth quarter of 2025. Many are benefiting from booming demand in semiconductor packaging and testing, with heat sinks and lead frames driving double-digit annual growth for Niching in October.
