BrandTaiwan is not simply a program or investment, but a national spirit that emphasizes creative and strategic support for the arts, talent, and intangible value. It requires critical mass and begins with first impressions at the airport. Brand-driven, it demands urgency, unity, and a commitment to total transformation. This mindset is not isolated to Taiwan, but is embraced as national policy in various countries. To believe in Brand-driven, one must believe in the absolute centrality of intangibles.
