New "Green Trade Secret Award" and "Supply Chain Trade Secret Management Sharing" Projects to Drive Sustainable Innovation Momentum
Protecting company innovations and competitive advantages through trade secrets are increasingly important developments, now trending worldwide. Every year, TSMC awards the coveted "Golden Trade Secret Award" to distinguished registered trade secret cases, selected after rigorous review. As of 2020, a total of 1,616 awards were awarded to 7,817 TSMC inventors. In order to implement both internal and external intellectual property protection strategies, TSMC has launched the "Green Trade Secret Award" in 2021 to encourage and motivate employees to innovate more in the paths of environmental protection, social responsibility, and corporate governance (ESG) through recognition and rewards. In addition, TSMC has concurrently initiated the "Supply Chain Trade Secret Management Sharing" project, a pro bono service project that aims to promote the development of the supply chain by sharing practical experiences to build more complete intellectual property management capabilities.
