[Webinar] Think AI. Think Broader: Global Opportunities. Local Access.

AI isn't just about software. It runs on advanced chips and memory, and Korea and Taiwan are at the heart of that supply chain. Now the growth is spreading into other sectors.

In Taiwan, strong domestic demand is putting the economy on track for its fastest GDP growth in almost four decades. In Korea, the boom is reaching beyond memory chips into power equipment, as AI data centres drive demand for electricity infrastructure.

Ask most investors where AI is happening and they might point to Silicon Valley. But every AI model, data centre and server depends on hardware, and a large share of that hardware comes from these two markets. As demand for computing power keeps climbing, Korea and Taiwan have moved from being behind-the-scenes suppliers to being among the most closely watched stories in Asia. For investors, this means AI exposure in Korea and Taiwan is no longer a single-sector story. It increasingly spans semiconductors, industrials, energy infrastructure and more.

Investing directly in overseas markets can mean unfamiliar exchanges, different trading hours and extra currency considerations. iFAST’s SGX-listed ETFs offer another route to access these themes.

In this webinar, learn more about:

  1. Why Korea and Taiwan matter: their role in the AI supply chain
  2. Growth beyond chips: how AI is lifting sectors in Korea and Taiwan
  3. Meet the ETFs: how iFAST’s SGX-listed ETFs can give you access to both markets
  4. Live Q&A: bring your questions for our team

Whether you already hold AI-related stocks or are exploring the theme for the first time, this session will help you understand where the opportunities lie across Korea and Taiwan and how to access them.
