Summary

- Aims to drive co-production and international marketing
- TCCF event expands role as leading hub for Asian creative industries
The 2025 Taiwan Creative Content Fest (TCCF) has kicked off with the unveiling of two significant global-facing investment vehicles. The first is the Taiwan-Korea Entertainment and Cultural Content Fund, a NT960 million ($31 million) initiative spearheaded by Korea's CJ ENM in partnership with Taiwan's Far EasTone Telecom and TVBS Group. This fund will drive investment in film, TV, music, live entertainment, co-production, distribution, and international marketing.
Complementing this bilateral fund is the Far Eastern Creative Entertainment Fund, jointly founded by Fubon Cultural Creative, Far EasTone, and the Taiwan Creative Content Agency (TAICCA). This fund focuses on elevating Taiwanese intellectual property globally while also introducing world-class works to local audiences.
TAICCA chair Sue Wang emphasized that these two funds represent more than just a capital infusion, as they signal a more mature, globally connected ecosystem. "TCCF has become a key entry point for international companies seeking to collaborate with Taiwan," she said. "The island is evolving from a creator's hub into a center for investment and co-production."
Sean Cho, VP of international business at CJ ENM, highlighted the strategic potential of the Taiwan-Korea partnership, stating, "By combining Korea's production expertise with Taiwan's creative strengths, we aim to develop more internationally impactful works."
The launch of these major funds sets a strong tone for TCCF 2025 as the event continues to expand its role as a leading hub for Asian creative industries.
