The APEC Digital Opportunity Center (ADOC) Project is an ECOTECH initiative that Chinese Taipei first proposed in the 2003 APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting. It aims to assist in transforming digital divides into digital opportunities throughout the Asia-Pacific region. The ADOC initiative utilizes the advantages of Chinese Taipei’s information and communications industry, and its experience in developing an e-society, to help APEC member economies upgrade their information and communications technology (ICT) application capabilities; hence, ADOC increases the digital opportunities available to vulnerable segments within the APEC community.

Local managers of each PMEs will select 3 articles of all posted articles from our forum. By October 20, those who were chosen will enter the next stage and will be awarded USD 100 later. If the articles are written in local languages, local managers have to translate them into English.
From October 21 to October 31, trainees and general public can go to our forum to have a vote in electing the best article of 30 articles from 10 PMEs. Online-voting will account for 50% and the remaining 50% will be based on the qualification given by the activity panels. The participants who stand out at the final stage will be awarded ASUS products (First prize: Zenbook, second prize: Eee Pad Transformer, third prize: ASUS Eee PC).
