We are grateful for the opportunity to have been selected for the CIAT Accelerator Program nine years ago. The CIAT Accelerator Program provided market connections, corporate mentors, and investment resources, which allowed us, still in our seed stage at the time, to gain exposure to various levels of perspectives and learning. Especially, the introductions and collaborations with large enterprises honed our product and technical capabilities, enabling us to present ourselves more effectively to the market and investors. As a result, we successfully raised over a hundred million in funding, allowing us to advance into international markets. The CIAT Accelerator Program played a crucial role in this process!

The process in CIAT Accelerator in 2019 has been crucial for us over the years, including: I. Sharing experience in startup development II. Facilitating quick order acquisition by connecting with high-level corporate executives III. Providing fundraising support to rapidly secure capital IV. Expanding visibility and brand through various activities and courses V. Offering mutual support from mentors and other startup CEOs The CIAT Accelerator will undoubtedly be a key force for the future of Taiwan's startup industry!

4. In 2017, H3 Platform was honored to win the second place in the fourth CIAT Accelerator. That year, with the help of the professional team from CIAT Accelerator, we had many opportunities to connect with the server division of Inventec and launched the H3 first-generation PCIe Gen3.0 shared graphics card (GPU) solution, which was sold to IBM AI Lab in the U.S. This was a significant boost in the early stages of our startup! Thanks to CIAT Accelerator marketing efforts, our company’s visibility also increased, which made recruiting talent much smoother. In 2019, during our second round of fundraising, Phison Electronics (8299) noticed the reports from CIAT Accelerator and realized that, in addition to the U.S. startup Liqid working on composable systems in data centers, there were also outstanding teams in Taiwan. Consequently, they actively approached H3 Platform for strategic investment, which was successfully completed that year! Overall, CIAT Accelerator has abundant resources to help startups connect with important domestic companies. For startups, this is like adding wings to grasp opportunities. The excellent senior peers within the CIAT Accelerator also become supportive partners, making the entrepreneurial journey more exciting with mutual encouragement and support.

TMYTEK won the sixth championship of the CIAT Accelerator in 2018, which was also our first accelerator program. During this period, TMYTEK transformed from a purely engineering team into one that could clearly articulate OUR value in just six minutes. We are grateful for the wonderful journey in the CIAT Accelerator.

Sometimes in life, all you need is a turning point. I am deeply grateful to CIAT Accelerator and Delta Electronics for giving me that opportunity in 2018. When my life and career were both tumultuous, it was like opening an umbrella that led to the creation of Yallvend. From having nothing to raising over a hundred million, all you need is that pivotal moment. I wish that everyone involved can find, just as I did, that seemingly small opportunity that, in retrospect, becomes incredibly significant in their lives.

I am very grateful to our mentors for teaching us how to run a business and simultaneously guiding us on the market's demands for product specifications.

Our mentors were able to provide precise guidance on our product and make improvements to our business practices.

The discussions with our mentors and the CIAT Aaccelerator have been immensely helpful in understanding international funding insights and practical business operations.

The CIAT Accelerator helped us adjust and adapt to a growth-oriented structure!

Our mentors have been steadfast and unwavering in their support for us!

So, some of my startup friends often ask for recommendations on accelerators. We highly recommend the Cloud Leopard Program because, after running it last year, we found that its 'big leads small' model is very beneficial for startups at our stage.

Corporate mentors played a very important role. They quickly help us find the departments within such a large company where our products can be effectively utilized.
