All the world’s a stage for AI Every year in Taipei, tens of thousands of tech professionals and enthusiasts convene at the Nangang Exhibition Centre for Asia’s largest B2B tech expo. This year, Computex 2025 drew a record-breaking 86,521 attendees from 152 countries, while the wider venue welcomed around 1,400 exhibitors across 4,800 booths in roughly 80,000 m² of space.

important than ever that enterprises have a reliable networking stack to not only store personal data for ingestion by these AI algorithms, but also lend them the ability to train and fine tune personal models that can best fit every use case. In steps the PAS7700, Synology’s answer to that burning question. This new active-active NVMe storage solution has three times the performance as Synology’s previous flagship models. The PAS7700 is an enterprise solution designed to accelerate, scale and protect enterprise data, leveraging an active- active architecture for seamless support at every networking layer.

Held in Taiwan, a nation whose GDP surged approximately 4.3% in 2024, the fastest annual growth in three years, Computex benefits from being set in the world’s semiconductor heartland. Taiwan is home to TSMC, which manufactures about 90% of the world’s most advanced chips, and Taiwanese firms collectively account for roughly 68% of global chip production. This all sets the stage for the theme of this year’s event – AI Next. Exhibitors from all over the world put their best foot forward and showcased amazing advancements in a diverse range of fields. In this article, we will be looking at some of the highlights of innovation as was seen on the show floor at Computex, or announced as part of the wider events.
