EU Innovation Week 2025 Highlights Drone Technology and Export Opportunities – Taiwan and the EU Strengthen International Industrial Cooperation
Following the September signing of a four-party MOU between the Asia UAV AI Innovation Application R&D Center, Asia UAV Innovation Industrial Alliance, TÜV Rheinland, and STMicroelectronics, the 2025 EU–Taiwan Forum on Environment and Science: Drone Technology & Export took place on October 22 at the Taipei International Convention Center (TICC).
Jointly organized by the European Economic and Trade Office (EETO), EU Centre in Taiwan (EUTW), and TÜV Rheinland, and co-hosted by STMicroelectronics and leading drone associations, the forum brought together senior policymakers, industry leaders, and academics to explore UAV policy trends, technological innovation, regulatory alignment, and international export strategies. Keynote guests included Lutz Güllner, Head of the European Economic and Trade Office; Kuo-Hsien Lin, Administrative Deputy Minister of Transportation and Communications; Chiayi County Magistrate Weng Chang-Liang; Giuseppe Izzo, Vice President of STMicroelectronics Asia Pacific and General Manager of STMicroelectronics Taiwan; and Marcel Visser, Senior UAS Professional at TÜV Rheinland—symbolizing strong cross-sector collaboration between Taiwan and the EU.
In the first session, the European Commission expert presented the EU Drone Strategy 2.0 and its implementation roadmap for U-Space, then followed with insights into the EU’s space programs and future cooperation with Taiwan. The discussion, co-hosted by the European Values Center for Security Policy and the EU Centre at National Chengchi University, featured government and industry representatives discussing policy alignment and transnational partnerships.
The European Commission expert highlighted that the EU Drone Strategy 2.0 outlines 19 flagship initiatives through 2030 to build a unified European drone market—including the establishment of an Innovative Air Mobility Hub, European drone registry, and Trusted Drone Label, while also developing a joint testing network for civilian and defense drones. The EU seeks to deepen collaboration with partners like Taiwan to strengthen supply chain resilience and harmonize international standards.
The second session focused on the EU drone market and technology applications. STMicroelectronics showcased its AI-based drone solutions, TÜV Rheinland analyzed EU market entry pathways, and Max Lo, Chairman of the Asia UAV Innovation Industrial Alliance, discussed Taiwan’s manufacturing capabilities and future outlook.
Ivan Hsieh, Vice General Manager of TÜV Rheinland’s Electrical Services, stated: “For Taiwan’s drone industry, the first step in entering the EU market is ensuring compliance with both CE marking safety standards and EU type examination for flight safety.” He added that civil unmanned aircraft (UAS) manufacturers aiming to operate or sell in Europe must demonstrate compliance in product design, manufacturing, and operation with EU regulations and safety standards. TÜV Rheinland, with over 150 years of product conformity experience, was designated by the German Federal Aviation Office (Luftfahrt-Bundesamt, LBA) in 2022 as an EU Notified Body under Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/945 to conduct type examinations for open-category drones - helping Taiwanese manufacturers align with EU standards and establish a solid foundation for market expansion.
“Taiwan’s drone industry is ready for the global stage,” added Chairman Lo. “Our key challenge is no longer production capacity, but certification. This forum marks a milestone as Taiwan enters the era of globally certified UAVs through closer cooperation with trusted international certification partners.”
The forum underscored the growing partnership between Taiwan and the EU across policy, technology, regulation, and market collaboration—laying the groundwork for standard alignment, supply chain cooperation, and stronger competitiveness for Taiwan’s UAVs in Europe and beyond.
EU Innovation Week 2025, being held October 21–23 alongside the Taipei International Electronics Show and AIoT Taiwan, gathers business leaders and experts from both regions to explore industrial AI, energy transition, drones, smart cities, and intelligent mobility—strengthening bilateral ties in innovation and sustainable growth.

The EU's policy response and its effectiveness are still in a phase of continuous change and observation. The various chapters of this book collectively feature twenty experts and scholars in European studies from both sides of the Taiwan Strait. They cover professional fields including law, politics, economics, international relations, finance, and more. The essays included in the first part provide a comprehensive understanding of pandemic governance from a macroscopic perspective. Accordingly, the essays in the second part focus on analyses at the level of economic and legal frameworks. This provides insight into understanding the latest legal developments in the EU, regional economic cooperation, currency competition, and more, offering contextual reflections under the global change of times.

Editors of the Book: Hungdah SuTo avoid a repeat of those nationalist nightmares, a common European Dream emerged after WWII, which has since developed into some essential doctrines of European integration. This dream-inspired institutionalist context has framed intergovernmental bargaining, sectoral spillovers and transnational cooperation in European integration. The powerful European Dream has even encouraged Europeans toward closer integration, though they were, quite often, very reluctant to go further. This dream-driven approach and reluctant runner’s model have highlighted some fundamental realities of European integration, extremely inspiring for the future of the EU and the ongoing Asian regionalism.
This book consists of three parts and thirteen chapters. It aims to explain European integration, the EU’s role in global governance and the EU’s impact upon Asian regionalism with the help of the European Dream approach and reluctant runners’ model. Trump’s unilateralism, the rising tensions between the US and PRC and the COVID-19 pandemic may be a turning point for world politics. Both globalization and global governance have consequently slowed down, giving place to regionalism and inter-regionalism. This book hopes to contribute to the rising debate over European integration, Asian regionalism and EU-Asian inter-regionalism.
