Taiwanese exports boom thanks to AI servers

Taiwan's exports recorded an increase of almost 70% in January, a result mainly driven by strong global demand for servers dedicated to artificial intelligence. This positive data fuels growth expectations for 2026 and strengthens the country's commitment to the development and defense of the technological sector.

This significant increase reflects Taiwan's position as a crucial hub in the global supply chain for AI hardware. Taiwanese companies are leaders in the production of essential components for AI servers, such as motherboards, cooling systems and high-efficiency power supplies. The ability to meet the growing demand for these advanced technologies has contributed significantly to the growth of exports.
