Also, a roundtable forum presided by The Executive Yuan (the Cabinet) officials will see discussions by experts and industry insiders on development trends of biotech industry in Taoyuan.

During the BioTaiwan 2016, a total of 11 high-profile biotech and related firms headquartered in Taoyuan, namely Tonyar Biotech Inc., Ko Da Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., C&I Bio-Tech Co., Ltd., COHO Biomedical Technology Co., Ltd., Cinn Nano Technology Co., Ltd., Formosa Laboratories, Inc., Yenchen Machinery Co., Ltd., Synmax Biochemical Co., Ltd., Vasobypass Medical Technology Corp., Air Kinetic Technologies Corp. and Trida Co., Ltd., will display a slate of new products and innovative technologies in the Taoyuan Pavilion.
