Taoyuan, a special municipality located in northwestern Taiwan, is
expected to come under global spotlight when the 2024 Junior Chamber
International (JCI) World Congress comes to town later this year.
Slated to be held at the Messe Taoyuan, the 2024 JCI will be held at
the Messe Taoyuan from 29 October to 2 November, with the theme of
“Technological Innovation for a Prosperous and Sustainable Future.”
The 2024 JCI is expected to attract over 5,000 international
attendees from 120 countries. The event will include exhibitions,
conferences, keynote speeches, workshops, debates, business negotiation
meetings, and other activities, bringing in global youth leaders and
entrepreneurs from 120 countries to participate.
Taoyuan mayor Chang San-Cheng recently attended the 2024 Junior
Chamber International World Congress (JCI) launch press conference and
investment promotion briefing, where he expressed optimism that events
like these could boost opportunities for further collaboration.
Speaking at the launch press conference and investment promotion
briefing, Taoyuan mayor Chang San-Cheng has pledged to spare no effort
in ensuring the successful hosting of the event.
The major also expressed optimism in the abundance of opportunities
for exchange and cooperation between the city government and the JCI,
especially in the technology industry and youth entrepreneurship
policies. Events such as the World Congress, he stressed, would allow
the city of Taoyuan to showcase its characteristics to the world.
JCI hosts four conferences in each region and one world congress that
is held in a different location every year. Past world congresses have
been held in Zurich, Hong Kong, South Africa and Estonia.
