KKBOX
也許你早已認識KKBOX,也許你從沒聽過這個名字,有人說我們是一家科技公司,也有人說我們是數位音樂的代名詞,這些解釋,以上皆是。但我們喜歡這樣形容自己:“一個不受時空限制,讓人們輕鬆享受聽音樂並與同好分享樂趣的平台。”我們覺得能和朋友、音樂人一起分享喜歡的音樂,豐富彼此的社群生活,是一件很酷的事,因此我們每天都在思考著,如何讓人們輕鬆自由地透過音樂,與自己的朋友和喜歡的音樂人更靠近。KKBOX不是音樂家,也不是明星偶像,把網路技術玩到極致才是我們的強項。把音樂數位化不難,但是把音樂變得像乾淨的自來水一樣,讓人們無論在任何系統平台,用什麼上網工具,隨時、隨地都能聽到豐富而高品質的音樂,這就有一點門檻了。人們想要隨時隨地享受自己喜歡的音樂也不難,但讓大家和好朋友、名歌手一起邊聽音樂邊聊天,這門檻又更高了。更不要說KKBOX擁有上百萬的音樂資料庫,從華語、英語、日語到韓語,從流行、古典、爵士、搖滾、嘻哈到電音,從周杰倫到棉花糖,從Lady Gaga到火星人,只要是好聽的音樂,KKBOX絕不讓它們缺席。你問KKBOX還有哪些強項?動態歌詞方便你偷偷練唱,到KTV當歌王,放心播方便店家商場公開播放,吸引顧客上門捧場,音樂商店方便讓習慣擁有音樂的人下載單首收藏。簡單說,把聽音樂變得好方便、好Easy是KKBOX的最強項!

Archilife Research Foundation
Since its establishment on December 30, 1978, the Archilife Research Foundation has offered scholarships to support students in master courses to complete their theses, and implemented different ways to integrate knowledge. After long years of its pioneering stage, Archilife commenced various long-term researches in the areas of architecture, environmental sustainability and development starting from 1987. During the process of researching human inhabitations and sustainable development, Archilife discovered that advancements of information technologies and cyberspace over the past decade had profound impacts on human lifestyles. The sharing and integration of related knowledge, and the education in these fields should be one of Archilife's essential objectives. Therefore, besides scholarships regarding architecture, environmental sustainability, ecology and health care, Archilife offered scholarships for the theses related to information society and culture from 2000 to 2008 as well. On the other hand, information technologies and the Internet brought new possibilities to how people can express their creativities and interact with each other. So, subsequent to recent adjustments of the scholarships and the funding projects, Archilife started with holding a series of sharing and exchanging meet-ups among the domestic independent game developers' community, conveying and communicating the knowledge and experiences learned from certain international game development conferences, in the hope that it would help this community to evolve. About other aspects of knowledge integration, Archilife developed different methods including: a knowledge bank system, index books, and knowledge keepers in various fields. These resources have served as powerful tools in filling in research gaps and refining research findings. Archilife currently holds periodic communions and bookish assemblies to strengthen the knowledge of its members so as to face a heterogeneous and changing future.

Asustek
Asustek Computer Inc. ASUS takes its name from Pegasus, the winged horse in Greek mythology that symbolises wisdom and knowledge. ASUS embodies the strength, purity, and adventurous spirit of this fantastic creature, and soars to new heights with each new product it creates. The Taiwanese information technology industry has grown enormously over the last few decades and the country is now a dominant player in the global market. ASUS has long been at the forefront of this growth and although the company started life as a humble motherboard manufacturer with a handful of employees, it is now the leading technology company in Taiwan and employs over 11,000 people around the world. ASUS makes products in almost every conceivable category of information technology too, including PC components and peripherals, notebooks, tablets, servers and smartphones. Innovation is key to the success of ASUS. Having unveiled the PadFone to a rapturous audience at Computex 2011, this year ASUS chairman Jonney Shih raised the bar once more with the announcement of the TAICHI and Transformer Book dual-purpose mobile devices. The ASUS TAICHI is an Ultrabook with a double-sided display that allows it to be used as a tablet when the lid is closed, while the Transformer Book is a tablet that can be docked to a keyboard for instant transformation into an Ultrabook. Together with the Tablet 810 with Windows 8 and Tablet 600 with Windows RT, ASUS has an array of products that will surpass its users’ imaginations as the world enters a new era of cloud computing. This visionary approach is why ASUS is a major proponent in bringing quality innovation and design into its users’ lives. ASUS products won 3,886 international awards and accolades in 2011, and company revenue was over US$11.9 billion.
