The Ministry of Environment (MOE) held a special event on August 13th at the 2025 Taiwan Venture Capital Annual Conference. For the first time, the conference, acting as a dialogue between government and capital, partnered with the venture capital association to establish a green industry exchange platform. Minister of Environment Peng Qiming attended and delivered a speech, noting the crucial importance of venture capital in Taiwan's net-zero transition. He emphasized that net-zero emissions is not only an environmental goal but also an opportunity to reshape national competitiveness. He concluded that integrating policy guidance and market momentum is necessary to jointly create a new economic landscape.
The Ministry of Environment (MOEN) held a special event focused on the investment strategy of its "Green Growth Fund," inviting numerous venture capital firms, startups, and experts and scholars to discuss key green areas such as resource recycling, carbon capture, energy storage technology, climate adaptation, and urban mining. The event combined keynote speeches, thematic forums, and a startup demo show. Through the display of innovative achievements and in-depth dialogue with the industry, the event aims to accelerate the implementation of green technologies, match the necessary funding, and ultimately invigorate Taiwan's green investment ecosystem.
Peng Qiming pointed out that in the face of extreme climate and increasingly fierce competition for resources, Taiwan not only needs to continue to innovate in environmental governance, but also to create green industries with investment potential, scalable development, and the ability to substantially change the status quo; venture capital power is critical to Taiwan's net-zero transition, and can demonstrate the government's policy determination and action to promote the "Green Growth Fund" and the six key net-zero industries.
The Ministry of Environment (MOEN) noted that this is its first time participating in the Annual Venture Capital Conference. It hopes to collaborate with the venture capital community to encourage private investment in green startups, strengthen trust between government and industry, and ultimately achieve the long-term strategic goal of net-zero emissions by 2050. MOEN will continue to use policy tools such as the Green Growth Fund to encourage more innovative companies to invest in green technology development. By collaborating with the private sector, MOEN aims to ensure that green transformation is no longer just a slogan but a real driver of Taiwan's economic growth.
