Support of Education and Culture

We are well aware that we carry a heavy burden of social responsibility while pursuing operational growth. Therefore, to reduce social risks and promote community development opportunities, we adhere to the philosophy of "taking from society, giving back to society". Starting from three perspectives: "education and culture, environmental sustainability, and social care", we engage in diverse social participation activities such as providing local employment opportunities, promoting industry-academia cooperation, and supporting community welfare and education programs. These efforts aim to stimulate local economic development, integrate corporate and employee resources to maximize social impact, and establish long-term partnerships with communities for mutual prosperity, thereby bringing positive and shared benefits to society.

Education can facilitate social mobility to allow our next generation to gain competitive advantages. Through the investing in educational resources and the implementation of industrial-academic collaboration projects in 2024, we hope that this could bring young people more opportunities for development.

Held the "Career Exploration Journey" Event with Boyo Social Welfare Foundation

The Boyo Social Welfare Foundation has been providing free after-school tutoring to disadvantaged children in rural areas of Taiwan for many years. Through free learning support materials and assistance, it provides children in rural areas or disadvantaged families with richer learning resources, so that they can be more competitive. In 2024, our company collaborated with the Boyo Social Welfare Foundation to organize the "Career Exploration Journey" event. Through the core capabilities of Chipbond, we help the junior high school students understand the diversity and connotation of careers and inspire them think about future career choices and study directions. This activity was presented by 24 colleagues from different departments of Chipbond Volunteer Club. They were conducted by video during the epidemic period and face-to-face after the epidemic subsided. Through activity design and interaction, children were led to conduct career exploration and draw a blueprint for their career. A total of 10 events were held this year with 202 participants, and since the start of the event in 2022, a total of 34 events have been held with a total of 811 participants.

"Good Days in Hsinchu, Good Places Locally" Sustainable Market Cohosted with National Tsing Hua University

Carrying forward local economic vitality and cultural traditions, the Regional Innovation Center of National Tsing Hua University and Chipbond collaborated for the first time to hold a sustainable market. Through this industry-academia partnership, we aimed to provide local producers and consumers with a direct face-to-face platform. The market gathered eight quality brands from Hsinchu, all committed to social impact. The event highlighted three core principles of sustainable agriculture—"small people, small lands, small satisfaction"—sharing themes of land stewardship and local revitalization, strengthening local identity, and promoting a prosperous Greater Hsinchu community. Six employees volunteered for this event, helping generate a green transaction volume of NT$45,635. Chipbond will continue to leverage its positive influence to jointly practice sustainability in daily life.

We have participated in the "Reshaping Technological-Vocational Education - Realize off-campus Internship Programs" and "the Industry- Academia Cooperation Project" of the Ministry of Education and the Dual System of Vocational Training Project of the Ministry of Labor over the past years. We also have provided opportunities for schools and the youth bureau departments of government to visit enterprise. The Company continued to work with 4 universities for industrial-academic collaboration, a total of 14 students participated in this internship program in 2024 (8 students participated in the 2024 academic year and 6 students participated the 2023 academic year) to integrate the knowledge learned at school and the actual practices in order to reduce the gap between academia and industry through training courses and operational practices.

In 2024, the Company launched a summer internship and pre-employment program to provide students with early exposure to the workplace, facilitating their learning and adaptation to changes in workers' status. The internship process is utilized by the company to identify exceptional talents with potential.
