2026 & 2027 Hsieh Nien Fan Sponsored & Corporate Table Rules
2026 & 2027 Hsieh Nien Fan Sponsored & Corporate Table Rules
The 2026 Hsieh Nien Fan will be held on [Date], 2026. The following rules were approved in principle by the Officers of the Board on September 22, 2025. The rules are designed to ensure that the diverse and growing membership is represented at the Hsieh Nien Fan by limiting the number of seats and tables purchased by one member company.
SPONSORED TABLE RULES:
- AmCham Member Companies are invited to sponsor a table at Hsieh Nien Fan.
- The 2025 sponsors will be assessed for 2026 sponsorship in December 2025. In accordance with the Engagement Point System, sponsors who accumulate zero points during the 2025 calendar year will be downgraded by one tier for their 2026 sponsorship status.
Beginning in 2027, AmCham Taiwan will implement a Sponsorship Tier Baseline Point System, which will operate alongside the existing Engagement Point System. This new measure is designed to more accurately reflect member engagement and ensure that sponsorship visibility and benefits are aligned accordingly. Each sponsorship tier will require a minimum number of points, as outlined below:
General: 3 points
Bronze: 5 points
Silver: 6 points
Gold: 7 points
Platinum: 8 points
- A grace period will apply, with the Sponsorship Tier Baseline Point System to be officially announced in September 2025. Member engagement activities conducted during the 2026 calendar year will be reviewed and applied to determine the 2027 Hsieh Nien Fan sponsorship tier. If a sponsor fails to meet the designated minimum point threshold for their current tier, they will be reclassified for the purposes of sponsorship recognition and related entitlements for the 2027 Hsieh Nien Fan.
- While every effort will be made to accommodate all sponsorship requests, qualified 2025 Hsieh Nien Fan sponsors will be given the right of first refusal to 2026 Hsieh Nien Fan. The same principle will apply to 2027 Hsieh Nien Fan, meaning 2026 Hsieh Nien Fan sponsors will be assessed and given the first right of refusal.
- Companies can only sponsor ONE table. Companies that sponsor a table are not permitted to purchase individual seats for additional employees.
- Prominent table placement is given to sponsors.
CORPORATE TABLE RULES:
- AmCham Member Companies are invited to purchase a corporate table at Hsieh Nien Fan.
- Corporate tables are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Companies can reserve only ONE corporate table.
- Companies that purchase a corporate table are not permitted to purchase individual seats for additional employees. The maximum number of individual seats one company can purchase is four.
- To cancel without penalty, cancellations must be made by [Date], 2026. Payment by wire transfer for corporate tables must reach us by [Date], 2026 unless otherwise agreed to in writing.
ENGAGEMENT POINT SYSTEM
- For 2026 Hsieh Nien Fan, current sponsors with at least 1 point will remain eligible for their current tier sponsorship. Starting in 2027 Hsieh Nien Fan, each tier will require a minimum number of points, based on the Sponsorship Tier Baseline Point System.
- If there is an opportunity to move to a higher sponsorship tier, the Chamber will inform eligible Member Companies. If demand exceeds availability, eligibility will be determined using the points system explained above.
- The number of sponsorship packages available will partly be determined by venue limitations (floor plan, size, etc.). If demand exceeds availability, eligibility will be determined using the points system explained above.

AmCham Releases Its 2024 White Paper
Nearly 40 reporters from local and international media outlets gathered at the Regent Taipei on June 6 for the launch of AmCham’s 2024 Taiwan White Paper. The press conference, led by AmCham Taiwan Chairperson Dan Silver and President Patrick P. Lin, was followed by a luncheon for members and their guests.
Lin opened the event by emphasizing the significance of the White Paper, which has served as the Chamber’s most important advocacy document for several decades. It represents the interests of the international business community and provides a platform for AmCham members to express recommendations to secure Taiwan’s economic future, as well as to improve U.S.-Taiwan bilateral economic relations. Lin further noted that AmCham member companies maintain strong commitment to Taiwan and are confident in its potential for growth.

In this year’s White Paper, AmCham members urged the Taiwan government to work with industry to enhance the investment climate, strengthen resilience, and amplify Taiwan’s strategic economic positioning in the face of an uncertain future.
The Chamber lauded the encouraging progress of the U.S.-Taiwan Initiative on 21st Century Trade and urged both governments to establish a well-defined roadmap outlining the execution of agreements under the Initiative, and subsequently use it to move towards a bilateral trade agreement. AmCham also called on the U.S. government to ensure continued bipartisan support for Taiwan’s defense, finalize the U.S.-Taiwan Initiative on 21st Century Trade, and advance efforts to remove double taxation from bilateral investments. The U.S. government should also normalize high-level official visits and promote Taiwan’s inclusion in international organizations, including the World Health Organization, Interpol, and the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).
President Patrick P. Lin and Chairperson Dan Silver answer questions from the media.
During the press conference, Silver stressed that Taiwan currently finds itself in a “golden opportunity” to leverage the unprecedented level of international attention and goodwill it enjoys, and that there is no way to know how long this attention will last. He stressed that there is “no time to waste” in making Taiwan the region’s most attractive investment destination. Silver also summarized the status of the 2023 White Paper, with 5 issues solved, and 25 in good progress, out of a total of 95 raised.
The press conference was followed by a luncheon attended by nearly 150 AmCham members and their guests, as well as special guest Minister of the National Development Council (NDC) Liu Chin-ching. Following a presentation by Silver, Minister Liu was invited to the stage to receive a copy of the White Paper on behalf of the Taiwan government.

In his remarks, Liu expressed his gratitude to AmCham for its long-term support, and for providing advice on improvements to Taiwan’s investment environment, further strengthening U.S.-Taiwan economic and trade relations. AmCham and the NDC look forward to arranging meetings to discuss specific issues presented in the White Paper in the coming year.
Members of AmCham’s Board of Governors, Minister Liu and representatives of the American Institute in Taiwan were present at the luncheon.
