Taiwan Government Supports e-Book Industry


Just a thought. Where's the imagination in Canada when it comes to technological innovation. Just look at this.

The Taiwan government says it will spend 2 billion New Taiwan dollars ($65 million) to support its electronic-book industry and help makers cash in on the rapidly growing world market.

Companies can receive government subsidies of up to 40 percent of costs for programs developing related technologies, according to an Industrial Development Bureau report released Thursday.

Taiwan is already a leading player in the digital book market, being the exclusive supplier of e-paper displays for Amazon’s Kindle and Sony’s e-Reader through collaboration with foreign firms that hold cutting-edge electronic ink technologies, officials said.
