Building bridges between Taiwan, America, and Hong Kong: A unique perspective on life in Asia's most dynamic city
The initial wave of Taiwanese Americans arrived in Hong Kong during the 1970s and 1980s, often as part of multinational companies or as entrepreneurs. Many were drawn by Hong Kong's position as a key Asian financial center and its proximity to Taiwan, allowing them to maintain connections with both their American and Taiwanese heritage.
The 1990s saw increased migration of Taiwanese American professionals, particularly in technology and international trade. This coincided with Taiwan's growing prominence in the global tech industry and Hong Kong's role as a major business hub.
