TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — InnoVEX 2026 will welcome nearly 500 innovators from 22 countries next month for its largest edition ever, CNA reported Thursday.

The June 2-5 event will be held under the theme “AI Together.” The scale of the fair, held in parallel with Computex, will be 11% larger than the 2025 edition, per CNA.

The organizer, the Taiwan External Trade Development Council, said the fair will function as an international platform for exchanges between innovators. France, Japan, South Korea, Thailand, Australia, Israel, Canada, Italy, and the Czech Republic will each have their own pavilion.

The three main topics under the “AI Together” banner will be AI and computing, robotics and mobility, and next-generation technology. International innovators, business leaders, and policymakers will discuss their experiences with AI at a forum on June 3.

Experts from Apache Software, Linux, Canva, and LinkedIn will discuss the impact of AI on their work methods. Valerie Pecresse, president of the regional council for the French region of Ile-de-France, will bring her semiconductor and quantum computing team to explain the development of AI in Europe.

Participants in the InnoVEX Pitch Contest will be able to win prizes of up to NT$940,000 (US$30,000), CNA reported. The innovators competing for the prizes will have opportunities to meet investors and receive international media coverage.
