IBM Taiwan Corporation yesterday announced one of its chief aims in 2002 as constructing a more wired, or "e-Taiwan." To achieve the aim, IBM put forward three strategies: building infrastructure, developing power of integration, and bringing out products more quickly. In addition, with its newly formed executive team, IBM is to work actively on six main markets, including e-Sourcing, wireless application, Linux, Storage Networking, e-Learning, and high performance computing.
With the spur of globalization, market competition is no longer regional, but worldwide. Especially now that Taiwan is a part of World Trade Organization (WTO), it's only if Taiwan industries transform traditional island-type executive models into cross-country e-surrounding can they survive, according to Jason Hsu, general manager of IBM Taiwan Corporation. |
