The city government is actively promoting the transformation of industries, such as the planning of the Kaohsiung Software Science Park, to promote the development of technology industries, hoping to get rid of the impression of Kaohsiung as a traditional industrial town and create a new industrial environment.
The Minister of Labor visited PilotGaea in Kaohsiung to experience the trend of technology industry in Southern Taiwan and to care about the employment situation. PilotGaea has been developing geographic information for 20 years and has developed the first and only geographic information development system in Taiwan. With the spirit of continuous innovation, PilotGaea has also extended its technology to the engineering hardware and physical entertainment industry, which not only demonstrates the ability of independent research and development, but also highlights the company's unlimited creativity.
In addition to introducing Minister Hsu to the GIS, he was also led to experience the sports car racing game developed exclusively by PilotGaea. Through the immersive multi-sensory experience, he enjoyed the thrill of driving a car as if it were a real car, which made him exclaim that it was so exciting and addictive.
