At the "Art × Intelligence × Future – A Feast of Technology and Humanity" communication event held on March 21, 2023, at Windsor Hotel Taichung, USE Electronics Co., Ltd. brought together suppliers and customers for an inspiring gathering combining artistic appreciation, social contribution, and collaborative business opportunities under its Sharing Platform initiative.
Upholding the Values of Partnership and Shared Growth: USE Hosts Its First Communication Forum
USE Electronics Co., Ltd., upholding the values of partnership and shared growth, hosted this communication forum for the first time. During her opening remarks, CEO and President Junko Kato expressed sincere appreciation to all attending guests for giving USE Electronics the opportunity to hold this event. She noted that after two years of the COVID‑19 pandemic and amid today's uncertain global environment, it was especially meaningful to gather suppliers and customers to discuss "challenges in the post‑COVID‑19 era" and "corporate sustainability."
Since March this year, USE Electronics has adopted a refreshed corporate identity and brand logo to strengthen our brand presence across the fields of technical service, electrical, electronics, and mechanical engineering. Through this event, we aimed to introduce the new identity and reaffirm our commitment to connecting suppliers and customers while delivering even higher‑quality service.
Named the "USE Partners Communication Day," the event aimed to strengthen relationships, spark new ideas, and encourage open dialogue between suppliers and clients. We extend special gratitude to our four collaborating partners—Delta Electronics, Inc., TAIWAN CKD CORPORATION, THK TAIWAN CO., LTD., and Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd.—for their dedicated preparation in creating a meaningful experience for all participants.
In honor of the long-standing friendship between Taiwan and Japan, we integrated themes of corporate responsibility and sustainability into the program. Guests were invited to enjoy curated Japanese sake selections and appreciate Bizen ware—recognized as part of Japan's cultural heritage—while learning the stories behind each cultural element. We hoped all attendees could enjoy a rich blend of dialogue, cultural experience, and artistic engagement.
During the event, Brad Wang, General Manager of Ching Hung Machinery & Electric Industrial Co., Ltd., shared reflections on the shared values of trust and service upheld over many years of partnership. He highlighted the increasing importance of ESG, energy conservation, and sustainable transformation, emphasizing how cross‑industry collaboration—exemplified through USE's unique integration of technology and cultural elements—demonstrates the company's success in multi‑sector operations and its spirit of shared value.
