Taiwan Delegation · 5 Companies

Five Taiwanese deeptech companies presented by ITRI, from semiconductor security to space-based maritime sensing. They meet European investors and corporates in Bordeaux through the INPHO curated one-to-one meetings.

Jmem Tek

Security, Defense & Dual-use Technologies

Hardware security IP and chips that combine a physical unclonable function (PUF), giving each chip a unique identity, with post-quantum cryptography engines running the NIST algorithms in hardware.

Maturity

Commercialisation, licensing revenue

Markets
Defense, AI data centres, industrial and automotive devices
Looking for
Co-development with European corporates facing the Cyber Resilience Act, distribution partners, strategic investment

AIPLUX Technology

Compute, AI & Data Infrastructure
Pitching at the Taiwan Session

CUBE, an on-premises AI system for confidential professional work. Local models on GPU edge hardware retrieve evidence, compare documents and prepare drafts for IP, legal and tax specialists, with data kept inside the customer environment.

Maturity
Commercialisation, recurring licences
Markets
IP, legal and R&D teams; France as priority market
Looking for
Investors, pilot customers and co-development partners in Europe

Phasetrum

Security, Defense & Dual-use Technologies
Pitching at the Taiwan Session

Proprietary RF ICs and a patented phased-array architecture for satellite communication user terminals and AESA radar. Antenna chips and a phase-tuning calibration method raise production yield and cut calibration time and chip cost.

Maturity
Prototype, 6 patents granted
Markets
SATCOM user terminals, AESA radar for UAV and land use
Looking for
Co-development partners and investment for tape-out and mass production

SPACEVLEO

Hardware & Enabling Deep Technologies

Space-ready RF sensing systems for maritime domain awareness. RF fingerprints, satellite and terrestrial communications and field validation keep track of a vessel’s identity when AIS is missing or unreliable.

Maturity
Prototype, field validation in Taiwan
Markets
Coast guards, maritime security agencies, port operators
Looking for
Co-development and commercialisation partners for maritime pilots

Hao Juen Technology

Physical & Bio-inspired Systems

Customised non-circular chainrings designed from each rider’s biomechanics and pedalling data. A patented algorithm turns power data into gear profiles, machined on automated CNC lines in 30 minutes.

Maturity
Customer validation
Markets
Performance cycling and bike fitters; North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific
Looking for
Commercialisation partners and a European bike-shop network

The Taiwan Session is part of the Taiwan–Europe Deeptech Partnership between ITRI (Industrial Technology Research Institute) and INPHO® Venture Summit 2026.
