A Platform for Cross-strait Industrial Exchange and Cooperation
 
 1. Objectives and Benefits
    With a view to implementing President Ma’s policies of “launching a new era of cross-strait economic and trade negotiation” and “promoting Taiwan’s interests and advancing global connections,” the Ministry of Economic Affairs’“Bridges Building Project” was approved by the Executive Yuan in August 2008. The goal of the project is to set up exchange platforms for each industry and to hold a series of cross-strait conferences on exchanges in individual industries as a way of building bridges between the two sides.
    We hope that via these conferences on cross-strait industrial exchange and cooperation, both sides can establish an effective mode of collaboration and create a more open and friendlier environment conducive to industrial development. This will open up new business opportunities and strengthen links with international corporations. In this way, enterprises can compete in international markets and make worldwide deployments. This will create a win-win situation for both Taiwanese and Chinese industries. 
 2. Strategy and Approach
    “Private enterprise to use bridges built by government”: Through the series of cross-strait conferences on industrial exchange, private companies on both sides are given a platform for interaction with potential partners for industrial cooperation in a number of fields, including joint R&D projects, joint production, sales and marketing cooperation, joint investment plans, and even joint cross-strait management and operation of multinational corporations, pooling of industrial assets and resources, and cooperation in areas such as banking and finance, and warehousing and logistics. All this will allow Taiwan’s economy to become linked up more closely with the global economy, and expand the space for strategy development and operations in corporate investments. This will create a strong environment for Taiwan’s continued economic strength and competitiveness.
    “Exchange in the first year, talks in the second, cooperation in the third”: The timetable of the Building Bridges Project envisages that both sides of the Taiwan Strait will take turns in hosting conferences on industrial cooperation and exchange. The first year is devoted to exchange, the second to talks and negotiations, while the third year will see the implementation of cooperation schemes and projects. Should both sides reach a consensus on relevant issues ahead of schedule, naturally the timetable can be pushed forward. The various conference sessions are mainly meant to attract people from industry and business, with each session designed for roughly 200 participants, 40 of which are expected to be mainland Chinese business operators. The ultimate objective of the sessions is to promote business opportunities and cooperation between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait.
    Currently, priority topics for the cross-strait conferences on industrial exchange include Chinese herbal medicine, solar photovoltaics, telematics, communication technologies, LED lighting, information technology services, wind power, logistics services, automobiles (including battery energy storage), food, precision machinery and West Coast Economic Zone. A special focus is placed on aspects such as division of labor in cross-strait value chains, relative competitive advantages, and mutually beneficial business and trade relations. The short-term goal is to explore future modes of cooperation in a number of domains, including industry, laws and regulations, technology and industrial standards; in the long term we hope that cross-strait industries can complement each other and develop together to compete with major international vendors and enter global markets.
