A Seal of Quality for Excellent Designs and Innovations
Under the influence of the pandemic, the production activities in the factories, people's work patterns, and even their ways of living concerning food, clothing, housing, transportation, and entertainment have changed significantly. In the post-pandemic era, bicycle riding will become another norm.
The TAIPEI CYCLE d&i awards was launched eight years ago to create an official seal of quality as a yardstick to measure design and innovation accomplishment. Since then, the TAITRA and the TBA present the awards, while the competition is implemented by iF and has developed into one of the most highly respected design competitions for the international cycling industry. For the past eight years, we received numerous entries from up to 30 different nations from around the world. This year, once again, welcome all participants of innovations and design in the design in the bicycle industry.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, most exhibitions
in Taiwan were either postponed or cancelled in the first half of 2020.
