Our Partners

SVA has an agreement with the Taiwanese accelerator, Taiwan Tech Arena (TTA), to review their selected startups from three research centers and multiple universities. TTA is a Taiwan accelerator that is funded by the Ministry of Science and Technology. Each year, 40-45 companies come to the US for SVA to review. TTA also invites SVA to Taiwan to meet over 100 startups twice a year.

The results have been excellent. Six startups have been accepted into the program so far, eight are under consideration, one is ready for exit, and three are ready for funding.
