Taiwan's TEEMA announced that Foxconn and several Taiwanese companies will build a technology park in Minkinia, Lower Silesia, Poland, focusing on AI, electric vehicles, electronics — and drone component manufacturing. Polish authorities are open to Taiwanese firms directly supplying drones and jointly developing counter-drone systems for the Polish military.
Taiwan's leading electrical and electronics industry association, TEEMA, announced plans for a major technology park in Minkinia, Lower Silesia, Poland, to be built by Foxconn and other Taiwanese firms. The park will focus on AI, electric vehicles, electronics — and notably, drone component manufacturing. Polish authorities are reportedly open to Taiwanese companies supplying drones directly and jointly developing counter-drone systems for the Polish military.
The site is notable: it was originally intended for an Intel chip packaging and testing center. After the US project was put on hold, Taiwan is filling the gap. For Warsaw, this represents an effort to build its own high-tech cluster, reduce dependence on external suppliers, and bolster its defense industry. For Taipei, it's a strategic foothold in European supply chains, extending cooperation with Poland well beyond semiconductors.
The Zioneer has previously reported on Ukrainian drone manufacturers exploring markets in Japan and Taiwan (Jun 20), as well as Polish-Ukrainian cooperation on small turbojet engines (Jun 27, earlier today). This latest development signals a broader trend of Taiwan deepening industrial and defense ties with Eastern Europe.
