​​​​​​Macronix Education Foundation

​The ​Macronix management team has always observed and proposed innovative and practical actions to give back to society. Experiencing the difficult task of high tech talent incubation, Macronix aimed to alleviate this by funding and establishing the Macronix Education Foundation in 2001.

The Macronix Education Foundation was established under the authority and supervision of the Ministry of Education. Its mission is to enhance value in the knowledge economy, foster technology talent, care for the physical and mental development of children and young people, and enhance the social well-being and quality of life. Its duties include:

  • Promoting technology development
  • Providing incentives to outstanding technology talent
  • Fostering knowledge and interest in science, culture and nature among children and young people
  • Arranging nature field trips and activities related to culture, historical sites, and folk arts
  • Engaging in other public-interest educational activities consistent with the founding mission of the foundation
