The day was filled with exciting and educational events that brought our TDC family together in a memorable way.

TDC: A Legacy of Innovation and Design Excellence For two glorious decades, the Taiwan Design Center has been at the forefront of innovation, creativity, and design excellence. There have been remarkable transformations and groundbreaking achievements in the world of design, and the journey continues with unwavering determination. The TDC has been a driving force behind WIA's success, fostering a culture of innovation that has allowed the Employee Resource Group (ERG) to thrive in a dynamic and ever-evolving industry.

WIA Taiwan: A Decade of Empowerment and Inspiration

Over the past ten years, the Women in Action (WIA) employee advocacy group has played a pivotal role in shaping the culture at TDC. Membership in the ERG has grown to encompass up to 30% of TDC employees, a testament to the positive impact of WIA in empowering and uplifting women in the workplace. WIA has been instrumental in facilitating personal and professional growth, fostering leadership, and promoting diversity and inclusion.
