The 2019 Taiwan Antrodia Cinnamomea International Academic Seminar and Industry Forum was held in Taipei on October 30, bringing together over a hundred experts, scholars, Antrodia Cinnamomea industry representatives, and industry association representatives from both sides of the strait to discuss topics such as the industrialization of Antrodia Cinnamomea, industry and product standards, Mainland market development, and cross-strait industry cooperation. "In recent years, cross-strait cooperation in Antrodia Cinnamomea industry academic research, cultivation, creative marketing, and cooperative research and development has achieved remarkable results," said Ye Zongming, Chairman of the Taoyuan City Antrodia Cinnamomea Commercial Association. For example, many Taiwanese Antrodia Cinnamomea companies have established production bases in Fujian. According to his observations, the future market for Antrodia Cinnamomea is mainly in Mainland China, and there is significant potential for cross-strait cooperation in research, industry standards, food safety, and industrial development.
Ye Zongming, known as the "King of Antrodia Cinnamomea" in Taiwan, has frequently traveled between Fujian and Taiwan in recent years. "At the 2015 Strait Forum, Mainland China included Taiwanese Antrodia Cinnamomea in the list of imported Chinese herbal medicines. We hope that both sides can take this opportunity to make Fujian a demonstration zone for the promotion of Taiwanese Antrodia Cinnamomea and work together to expand the Antrodia Cinnamomea industry," Ye Zongming said.
