explores how Taiwan’s machine tool industry can reshape talent cultivation by learning from German experiences. Through the ViVA 4.0 cross-border dual system and the national INex-ÜBA inter-company smart training project, Germany demonstrates the core values of "human-machine collaboration" and "resource sharing." The study suggests that Taiwan should leverage its industrial clusters to build a localized smart manufacturing talent ecosystem and develop transnational training mechanisms to enhance its global supply chain competitiveness.

“Go the extra mile. Sky is the limit.” This mantra—signifying the pursuit of excellence beyond any boundary—is the guiding principle of the National Taiwan University Racing Team (NTURT). The team’s objective is to compete in the international Formula SAE (FSAE) engineering competition. Every season, they design and build a small electric formula race car from the ground up. Since its inception, the team has navigated the challenges of its founding years and endured the global hurdles posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Now in its seventh year, the experienced, yet young and ambitious NTURT continues to refine its technology and team structure. Having competed in events in Japan and Australia and achieved top results domestically, the team consistently strives for higher performance and success.
