1. Overview of development
With semiconductors at its core, the Central Taiwan Science Park combines optoelectronics, precision machinery, and biotechnology to form a high-tech cluster in Central Taiwan. In 2025, the park brought in 20 high-tech companies. This included 2 integrated circuit companies, 6 precision machinery companies, 4 biotechnology companies, 1 computer peripheral company, 2 other science businesses, and 5 park enterprises.
The new investment amount was NT$4.33 billion. Combined with NT$107.38 billion from capital increases, the total investment reached NT$111.71 billion. As of 2025, the park has brought in 246 domestic and international high-tech companies (including 42 foreign companies), with a planned investment of over NT$2.51 trillion. This shows that the park’s investment environment and research power continue to win praise from companies at home and abroad.
Driven by strong demand for AI applications, the park's revenue reached NT$1,130.37 billion in 2025, marking the second-highest record for the same period and representing a growth of NT$96.11 billion or 9.29% compared to 2024.
An analysis of the park’s main industries shows that integrated circuits benefited from strong AI demand, high-performance computing, and smart devices, pushing revenue up by 11.47%. The optoelectronics industry faced weaker display panel market demand and falling prices, causing revenue to decline slightly by 6.78%. The precision machinery industry saw increased equipment demand as major semiconductor companies expanded factories for advanced manufacturing; however, due to tariff policy uncertainties, revenue growth was limited to 2.18%. The computer and peripheral industry benefited from rising demand for fingerprint modules and high-end fiberglass yarn, resulting in a significant revenue growth of 22.79%. The biotechnology industry gained from rising demand for new drugs, better marketing strategies in the US and Japan, and a higher global market share, causing revenue to surge by 34.52%. This shows that while the park is strengthening its advantage in semiconductors, it is also actively developing high-value industries like precision health, biomedicine, and precision machinery for long-term sustainable growth.
2. Employment growth
To promote hiring for park companies and employment for the public, the Central Taiwan Science Park Bureau continues to cooperate with local governments and related agencies to hold multiple recruitment events. Director-General Hsu Maw-Shin pointed out that the park offers an excellent investment environment, provides high-efficiency single-window administrative services, and drives various industry-academia cooperation projects. This encourages companies to invest in research and innovation and train top technical talent, thereby boosting overall industrial competitiveness and perfecting a diverse industry layout.
In terms of overall employment performance, the park's workforce grew from 55,662 people in 2024 to 61,901 people in 2025, an annual increase of 11.21%. Looking at the industry structure, the semiconductor industry ranks first at 53.03%, followed by the optoelectronics industry at 23.77%. For educational backgrounds, individuals with a college degree or higher account for 68.12% of the workforce. The gender breakdown is 65.64% male and 34.36% female. This shows that the park's workforce structure consists mainly of highly educated technical talent and displays a trend of steady growth.
3. Central Taiwan Science Park Teams Up with Local Governments to Build Comprehensive Employment Services
To effectively match employers with qualified talent, the Central Taiwan Science Park Bureau is driving comprehensive employment services and industry-academia connections:
4. Service Satisfaction Reaches New High
To improve the park's overall service quality, the National Science and Technology Council hires professional organizations every year to survey company satisfaction. The survey assesses six major areas: "park’s public image," "park development resources," "park service quality," "overall satisfaction," "complaint handling," and "loyalty and trust." The results serve as an important reference for park bureaus seeking to improve service quality. In 2025, the Central Taiwan Science Park's "overall satisfaction" reached 90.41 points, the highest among Taiwan's three major science parks. This is a 1.39-point increase from the 2024 score of 89.02 points, demonstrating strong corporate recognition of the park's service quality and administrative efficiency.
Additionally, the Central Taiwan Science Park Bureau continues to listen to company feedback through proactive visits and seminars. In 2025, the Bureau provided on-site services to 3 companies and organized 2 company seminars in both 2024 and 2025. These events allowed for face-to-face exchanges regarding park development needs and real-world issues, helping Additionally, the Central Taiwan Science Park Bureau continues to listen to company feedback through proactive visits and seminars.
