Minister of Economic Affairs Jyh-Huei Kuo departed for the United States on May 10 to attend the SelectUSA Investment Summit hosted by the U.S. Department of Commerce in Washington, D.C. Following his participation in related events in Washington, he will travel to Texas to promote bilateral trade and investment cooperation with the state.
According to the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Minister Kuo will engage with key U.S. business associations and enterprises to explore ways to deepen Taiwan-U.S. supply chain partnerships. He will also participate in various activities at the SelectUSA Summit, leveraging his extensive experience in industry to explore opportunities for enhanced collaboration with U.S. counterparts, particularly in the “Five Trusted Industry Sectors.”
Last July, Minister Kuo signed the Taiwan-Texas Economic Development Statement of Intent (EDSI) with Texas Governor Greg Abbott. In line with President Lai’s new economic and trade strategy — “Rooted in Taiwan, Expanding Globally, Strengthening Economic Ties with the U.S., Marketed to the World” — Minister Kuo will visit Texas to further promote investment and supply chain partnerships.
While in Texas, Minister Kuo will attend the completion ceremony of GlobalWafers' new fab on May 15. He will also assess the local investment environment, meet with key government officials and business leaders, and host business forums with Taiwanese businesses operating in the area. These engagements aim to better understand the challenges they face, relay timely feedback to the Texas government, as well as propose cooperation initiatives to strengthen Taiwan-Texas economic ties.
