The economic environment in Taiwan is somewhat similar to that of South Korea and Germany, with a high trade surplus and a stable manufacturing base. There are over 2,000 publicly listed companies spanning hundreds of industries. Additionally, compared to Japan and South Korea, Taiwan's economy is primarily made up of small and medium-sized enterprises. All these factors have laid a solid foundation for the rise of "hidden champions." Furthermore, Taiwan currently has 105 hidden champion companies that hold the world's number one position in various fields.
