 Background
In
order to strengthen the medical and pharmaceutical industry to meet the need
for short-, medium-, and long-term development, to elevate the overall
industrial performance, and to achieve globalization, the Pharmaceutical
Industry Technology Development Center (PITDC) was established by the government
to execute the resolution of the 4th National Science and
Technology Conference in 1991.
Mr. Chiu-Sheng Liu, the Chairman of U-Liang Pharmaceutical Company initiated an endowment for a total of NTD 60 million in
which NTD 20 million was sponsored by the Industrial Development Bureau (IDB),
Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA). The domestic pharmaceutical industry
donated the remainder. MOEA officially approved the founding of the Center on January 15, 1993.
PITDC
was renamed as Medical and Pharmaceutical Industry Technology and Development Center in 2004, in line with the changes
of industrial environment, the demand for quality of life, and the development
of medical equipment and devices. Thereafter, the Center expanded its service
scope towards building a communication platform for the integration of
resources from industry, government, academia and research institutes to
effectively improve overall technology levels of the medical and pharmaceutical
industry. The ultimate mission is to cultivate key technology platform,
upgrading the industry and internationalization.
