2019年亞太社會創新高峰會「啟動亞洲」

Date: May 10-12, 2019
Location: Kaohsiung Exhibition Center
 
Introduction:
We are currently facing one of the most challenging times in human history, with severe climate change, environmental pollution, unprecedented aging populations, exploding global population growth, widening wealth disparities, unequal resource distribution, racial conflicts, and humanitarian issues such as refugees. However, we now have the most advanced technology and knowledge, close international cross-disciplinary cooperation, and breakthrough innovative thinking, which empower us to face these challenges and simultaneously create a new paradigm for the well-being of humanity. In this context, ""social enterprises"" that focus on human and societal issues while maintaining a sustainability mindset within business organizations represent an essential development trend for the future.
 
Taiwan has long been renowned as a technology island. In recent years, it has started to gain international attention in the field of social enterprise, exerting a significant influence on the Asia-Pacific region and the world. In 2018, Taiwan hosted the first Asia-Pacific Social Enterprise Summit with the theme ""Tomorrow Asia,"" initiating a dialogue with international partners. In 2019, we aimed to continue the momentum of these exchanges and ""activate"" the social enterprise culture in the Asia-Pacific region, allowing the world to see Taiwan's experience and making Taiwan reach further than ever before. The summit took place in Kaohsiung, a thriving international city in southern Taiwan, and was hosted at the Kaohsiung Exhibition Center, the first multi-functional waterside exhibition center in Taiwan. This choice aimed to blend the characteristics of the emerging Asian Bay Area with the warmth of the southern region, creating a summit experience that connects with the local community, aligns with the world, and pursues sustainability while remaining close to the hearts of people.

我們正面臨人類史上最挑戰的時刻,嚴峻的氣候變遷、環境污染、前所未有的高齡化、全球人口爆炸成長、持續擴大的貧富差距和資源分配不均、種族衝突和難民人道問題。然而,當前我們擁有最先進的科技和技術、緊密的國際跨領域合作、突破窠臼的創新思維,讓我們有能力面對挑戰,同時開創造福人類環境的新典範。其中,關注人本與社會問題、又保有商業組織永續思維的「社會企業」,是未來重要的發展趨勢。

過去臺灣以科技島聞名,近年來也開始因社會企業受到國際社會關注,對亞太地區 及全世界皆有舉足輕重的影響。2018年,臺灣第一屆亞太社會企業高峰會,以「明日 亞洲」為題,開啟與國際夥伴的對話;2019年,我們期許延續交流的動力,「啟動」 亞太地區的社企文化,讓全球看見臺灣經驗,讓臺灣走向無遠弗屆。在臺灣南方最繁華 的國際城市,選擇座落高雄港邊、全台第一座多功能臨港會展中心-高雄展覽館做為高 峰會辦理地點,希望融合亞洲新灣區的特色與南部素有的熱情,創造連結在地、接軌世界、追求永續亦貼近人心的峰會體驗。
