Description
The Industrial Technology Research Institute
(“ITRIâ€) is a non-profit R&D organization engaging in applied
research and technical service. It was founded in 1973 by the Ministry
of Economic Affairs (MOEA) to attend to the technological needs of
Taiwan's industrial development. ITRI has played a vital role in the
transformation of the Taiwanese economy from an agriculture-based model
to an industrial one. By year 2007 it has grown to a 5500 people
operation, and serves as the technical center for industry and an
unofficial arm of the government's industrial policies in Taiwan. Backed
by its broad research scope and close industrial ties, ITRI is becoming
an increasingly active member in the global industrial R&D
community
