The Taiwan-Canada International Supply Chain Workshop will take place on December 17 at National Chung Hsing University (NCHU). Hosted by the Marketing Sustainability Research Lab of the Department of Marketing, NCHU, the workshop invites three scholars from the University of Alberta, one of the world's top 100 universities, along with a Canadian corporate president to deliver four lectures. These lectures will discuss the impact of supply chain transformation on the global economy and explore the latest trends in sustainable agriculture, artificial intelligence, and the beef industry in Alberta, Canada.
The first lecture will be delivered by Dr. Edy Wong, Associate Dean of the School of Business at the University of Alberta, on the topic "The Impact of Supply Chain Transformation on the Global Economy and the Development of Smart Agriculture." The afternoon sessions will focus on the current state of Taiwan-Canada collaboration in the beef industry. Mr. Hubert Lau, President of TrustBIX Inc., a Canadian listed company, will deliver an online lecture to share his successful experiences in developing beef production and distribution systems. Following this, Dr. Borzou Rostami, Director of the AI Center for Decision Analytics at the University of Alberta, will speak on "Sustainable Agricultural Systems: The Case of Sustainable Beef," offering insights into the applications of AI in the agricultural sector. Finally, Professor Anne Larsen from the University of Alberta will share her extensive expertise in cattle management and breeding practices.
Professor Tzong-Ru Lee, organizer of the event and faculty member of the Department of Marketing at National Chung Hsing University (NCHU), emphasized that Canada possesses abundant natural resources, while Taiwan excels in advanced processing and production technologies, creating limitless potential for collaboration between the two sides. Alberta is a major agricultural hub in Canada, and the University of Alberta ranks among the top three globally in AI research.
This workshop features prominent speakers from both academia and industry, who will share their expertise in business, agriculture, and AI. In addition to Taiwanese students, the event also includes international students from countries such as the Netherlands and Indonesia, aiming to broaden participants’ understanding of Taiwan-Canada supply chain cooperation.
In her opening remarks, Lian Chen, Representative of the Alberta Taiwan Office, noted that in 2023, the Taiwanese and Canadian governments jointly established the "Taiwan-Canada Supply Chain Resilience Framework" mechanism. This framework focuses on four key areas of cooperation: critical mineral value chains, clean fuels and renewable energy, green and resilient transportation, and advanced manufacturing, R&D, talent cultivation, and innovation. She emphasized that the supply chain topics addressed in this workshop are also a crucial aspect of bilateral cooperation. It is expected that the lectures will provide participants with valuable knowledge and insights.
The event is organized by the Marketing Sustainability Research Lab, Department of Marketing, NCHU. For further details, please contact: trlee@dragon.nchu.edu.tw.
