Taipei takes the lead in constructing a social-enterprise friendly capital

By Huang Nuan-yun/TIER
The Taipei government has created a business-friendly environment for social enterprises to grow and promoted sustainable growth within a social enterprise. Since 2014, the government began to promote some projects relevant to this goal. It enlarged the number of enterprises involved in receiving instructions from the government since 2015, promoting the campaign known as “SMEs brand expanding project-giving instructions to build a brand image for social enterprises through promotions”. The government continued to run a "project to promote services for the social enterprises located in Taipei City" in 2016. It is estimated that over 20 local social enterprises have received instructions on a case-by-case basis. Besides, the government helped the citizens to get to know more about how the social enterprise develops into a national and global business through a series of campaigns.
