國發會日前正式拍板同意高雄市政府提出的「AI算力專區」設置計畫,高雄未來將以更完整的算力基礎建設,推動產業加速升級,成為南台灣新一波科技動能核心。11月28 日在高雄市經貿發展協會會員大會中,國家發展委員會副主委詹方冠及經濟部技術司司長郭肇中以「國家 AI 十大建設」為題進行專題演講,會中也釋出多項有利高雄的政策訊息,獲得產官學界高度關注。
詹方冠副主委指出,行政院已在 115 年度編列 400 億元預算,全面啟動「國家 AI 十大建設」規劃,而高雄在算力產業具備深厚基礎,不論是資料中心、能源供應到產業聚落發展,都符合國家推動 AI 產業化的重要條件。他強調,國發會支持高雄設置 AI 算力專區,將可讓當地企業以更低門檻導入 AI 技術,進一步帶動智慧製造、智慧物流及科技服務等多元應用落地,創造南台灣新的產業高度。
經濟部技術司長郭肇中補充,國內廠商若要在全球競爭中勝出,AI 技術升級已是必然趨勢。經濟部將以企業輔導、技術加值與創新應用為主軸,協助企業掌握 AI 轉型契機,也會與地方緊密合作,讓高雄在未來成為 AI 產業創新的重要示範基地。

此政策推進亦與立法院的關注密切相關。民進黨高雄市長參選人林岱樺立委日前於立法院經濟委員會質詢時,亦向國發會主委葉俊顯強力推動 AI 算力專區設置。葉俊顯主委其後正式表示,該專區將有助於高雄產業升級與南北均衡發展,因此國發會已同意將此計畫納入行政院 115 年度預算執行。林岱樺強調,AI 算力已被國際視為「國力競爭指標」,而她的責任就是確保高雄抓住這場全球科技競賽的關鍵機會,強化台灣在國際市場的競爭力。
高雄市經貿發展協會理事長許力經則表示,高雄正迎來前所未有的產業轉型窗口,特別是在台積電、鴻海、和碩、AMD、NVIDIA 等全球半導體與 AI 大廠相繼布局「亞洲新灣區」後,高雄的科技就業與技術能量都迎來大幅提升。他認為,高雄市政府同步推動將部分區域規劃為「亞洲資產管理中心」,協助企業爭取更多國際資本的挹注;若 AI 算力專區能落地,將與資管中心、企業研發、科技進駐形成綜效,讓高雄產業升級速度「不只是加速,而是飛速」。
此次經貿協會的活動參與踴躍,包括市府經發局、都發局、財政局、外貿協會高雄辦事處,以及工業會、臨海工業區廠商聯誼會、中小企業協會、台日經貿文化交流協會、高雄市金融研訓發展協會與世界華商總會等共計 300 多名產官界人士參與。多數業者認為,高雄若能率先建構完整 AI 算力基礎,將有助企業縮短轉型時間、降低技術成本,也能吸引更多國際資本與人才進駐,形成新一波科技聚落成長曲線。

此屆「全場大獎」由日本設計師Junya Kamada與Chiyori Sambongi共同創作的《Kita no Hashi Bakery》奪得。該作品名「Kita no Hashi」意為「日本最北端」,整體設計以國境之北「稚內市」的地形輪廓為靈感,利用名稱和圖像傳遞唯有在日本最北端才能發掘的獨特價值與富饒物產,成功為在地麵包店打造出選用當地天然食材、職人手工的特色品牌形象。此設計兼具人文溫度與美感,展現飽滿的在地情感與品牌價值,並帶動地方產業發展,成為以設計推動地方創生的典範。
同時,國內設計師也展現傑出的設計創意,囊括金、銀、銅各一項殊榮。金獎由楊千逸設計師的作品 《Caged Marriage》獲頒。畫面中,新娘頭紗化為荊棘與牢籠,隱喻婚姻中看不見的壓力與犧牲。以強烈的視覺語言揭示「幸福」外表下的束縛,挑戰社會對婚姻的既定想像,並喚起大眾對性別平等、婚姻自主等議題的省思。銀獎由賴姵均設計師的作品《Universe in the Path》(宇宙在探索之徑)獲得。作品以「步行」為核心概念,透過身體感知與日常經驗,記錄臺南舊街巷弄的磚瓦與牆面,並將現實與想像拼貼成像,描繪出城市既公共又私密的雙重面貌,詩意呈現個體與城市之間的感知連結與記憶軌跡。銅獎則由吳昊倫與陳憶菁設計師共同創作的《Recreating Stories》(永絮意識)奪得,以時尚與當代藝術為題,重新詮釋「布料」與「紙張」的物質性,主視覺以留白與手繪筆觸傳達永續概念,展現文化思辨與環境意識。

Taipei, Taiwan — November 28, 2025 — Abu Dhabi’s government-backed developer Modon announced its official entry into the Taiwan market today at a press conference held at eslite hotel Taipei, unveiling the flagship residential project Muheira II, located in the core area of the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) financial district. This marks Modon’s first expansion into the Asia-Pacific region, signaling the arrival of Middle Eastern real estate capital in Taiwan and offering local investors a high-growth opportunity backed by a government-owned developer.
The event featured presentations by Mr. Mohammed Abdelrazik, Chief Commercial Officer of Modon, and Mr. Kelvin Wu, Chief Executive Officer of Knightsbridge Partners, drawing strong interest from financial and real estate media.
In recent years, Abu Dhabi has accelerated its economic diversification, with non-oil industries now contributing 77% of GDP. Combined with large-scale government investments and the influx of global AI and fintech companies, ADGM has become the fastest-growing international financial center in the Middle East. The continuous inflow of international professionals has pushed residential demand to approximately 6% annual growth, while supply increases only 2.6%, creating long-term structural undersupply and supporting stable price and rental growth.
Beyond its economic rise, Abu Dhabi is widely recognized for its high standard of living, cultural vibrancy, and exceptional safety. According to Numbeo’s Global Safety Index, Abu Dhabi has ranked the safest city in the world for eight consecutive years, known for its secure environment and stable social conditions. The city also boasts world-class cultural venues such as the Louvre Abu Dhabi, advanced medical and educational systems, efficient transportation, and expansive waterfront recreation areas—making it one of the most desirable international cities for expatriates.

Modon is one of Abu Dhabi’s key government-related developers supported by state investment entities, responsible for major urban planning and large-scale development projects across the emirate, including Al Reem Island and Hudayriyat Island. Many of Modon’s residential communities have sold out upon launch, underscoring the strong confidence the market places in the developer.
Muheira II—introduced in Taiwan today—is located at the heart of ADGM on Al Reem Island, adjacent to international banks, AI tech firms, and multinational headquarters. The district is also planned as a future high-speed rail hub. Property prices in the area have climbed over 38% this year, reflecting strong appreciation potential. To attract overseas investors, Modon has reserved units at accessible entry prices, beginning at approx. NT$550,000–600,000 per ping, making it one of the most compelling growth-driven investment options in the region.
Abu Dhabi’s residential market continues to strengthen, with apartment prices rising 14% annually and villas up 11%. A USD-pegged stable currency, 8–14% rental yields, liberalized foreign ownership policies, and the UAE’s golden visa program further position Abu Dhabi as one of the world’s top emerging real estate markets for 2025. Unlike Dubai—where developers commonly require 40% payment before assignment—government-backed projects in Abu Dhabi allow assignment after only 20% payment, offering greater flexibility for overseas investors.
To support Taiwanese investors entering the market, Modon provides a comprehensive one-stop international service covering investment consultation, legal assistance, handover, and property management—all designed to enhance transparency, security, and efficiency in cross-border real estate investment. Modon views Taiwan as a sophisticated market with strong global awareness and emphasizes that this debut represents an important step toward long-term investment cooperation between Taiwan and Abu Dhabi.
The December 6 and 7 investor briefings in Taichung and Taipei will be hosted by Metaverse Digital, serving as one of the local organizing partners responsible for event execution and on-site consultation. Metaverse Digital will assist Taiwanese investors in obtaining project information and connecting with the international resources offered by Modon and Knightsbridge Partners.
To help Taiwanese investors gain deeper insight into Abu Dhabi’s urban development and the investment potential of Muheira II, Modon and Knightsbridge Partners will hold investor briefing sessions on December 6 at The Lin Hotel in Taichung and December 7 at Regent Taipei, offering detailed presentations and one-on-one consultations. Participation is by reservation only.
