Genius Solution for SEMI-EQ.
A Word from the Chairman
"Talent" is the most important resource and fundamental aspect of Genii Ideas Co. ,Ltd. in driving our sustainable vision. Building on 2022 and anticipating the new landscape of the semiconductor industry driven by new applications and international political changes in 2024, our sustainable talent strategy in 2023 focuses on three paths: expansion, strengthening, and deep-rooting.
Firstly, we expanded our industry-academia cooperation framework by opening new overseas talent pipelines. The company has started negotiating with universities to collaborate on the needs of international students and to prepare for adjustments in our internal systems and training mechanisms to meet the future talent requirements of various departments, responding to the geopolitical environment and global customer layout.
Secondly, we strengthened the training courses for new and all-level employees from the previous year. Beyond aligning the courses with customer service needs, we further required project-level managers and instructors to enhance the purpose, desired outcomes, and content depth within the courses to avoid superficial training. We also continued implementing an internal instructor incentive program, encouraging all employees to take on instructor roles and constantly improve the course materials to meet current service needs.
Lastly, 2023 was a year for deeply embedding corporate culture into our sustainable vision. The chairman combined current events, actual cases from daily operations, and self-developed courses to communicate progressively with all employees and managers through different scenarios, integrating the desired values through feedback. The chairman set an example by practicing these values himself, then guiding all employees to participate, embedding the corporate culture deeply in most people’s hearts.
I deeply understand that the ultimate goal of promoting a sustainable vision is not just about corporate sustainability. We must think more deeply, realizing that all means of promoting sustainable management are actually for each other and for the next generation, not just for survival but for endowing life with meaning and happiness. We work together towards this goal.
Chairman
Sustainability Policy
In early 2022, the Company established its Sustainability Action Office to further deepen our commitment to sustainable business practices. The office collects trend information and practical examples to collaborate with various operational and executive departments within the Company to formulate effective policies that align with the nature of our business development. These policies encompass three key areas of sustainable development: "Talent Sustainability", "Service Carbon Reduction", and "Environmental Concerns". The office also collaborates with other departments and clubs at Genii Idea to engage in dialogues and communication with various stakeholders, driving the implementation of our sustainable vision and strategies.
Corporate Governance
Internal Mechanism for Sustainable Management
In our commitment to effective communication with both internal and external stakeholders, we underwent an organizational restructuring in 2022. As a result, we established the "Sustainability Action Office" directly reporting to the Board of Directors. The office is led by the Chief Sustainability Officer and Sustainability Managers, who have taken on the responsibility of consolidating internal carbon assessments, facilitating ESG initiatives across various departments, and formulating short, medium, and long-term sustainability objectives for relevant implementations. Our objective is to establish an ongoing communication channel with stakeholders through annual reviews and the issuance of sustainability reports, thereby enhancing the cohesiveness and transparency of our sustainability efforts.
To ensure that our ESG principles are not only embraced but also integrated into our day-to-day operations, we have taken additional steps. Beyond the personal involvement of the Chairman in visiting our offices across different regions to disseminate the ideals of sustainability, we have also provided ESG-related training to our mid and senior-level executives.
In 2024, the Company established the Sustainability Committee, which is responsible for formulating, promoting and strengthening the Company's sustainability policies, annual plans and strategies, as well as reviewing and tracking the implementation and effectiveness of sustainable development, and supervising the disclosure of sustainability information and reviewing the sustainability report.
Social Participation
The Company adheres to the philosophy of giving back to the society what we take from it. We believe that rather than having individuals with noble ideals but lacking the capacity to accomplish everything due to limited resources, it is more effective for Genii Idea to take the lead in encouraging and guiding our colleagues to actively participate in various social activities. By uniting our collective strength, we aim to internalize a culture of corporate social responsibility and effectively implement the concept of giving back to society.
Public Welfare Trust - Sustainable Education Fund and Geniideas × Formosa
The Public Welfare Trust - Sustainable Education Fund, a public trust, is dedicated to the core principles of "rooting, nurturing, and sustainability." We focus on deepening education and promoting sustainable development. We believe that true sustainable impact can only be cultivated by starting from the grassroots. The "Formosa 3D" mobile cinema embodies this vision by touring across Taiwan to screen educational films that help children understand the importance of sustainability. These films aim to ignite their passion for love and exploration through powerful visuals. We hope that this approach can inspire lives to positively influence one another and bring about meaningful change for the future.
In this positive cycle, the Public Welfare Trust - Sustainable Education Fund was introduced to "Formosa" a like-minded public welfare organization. Through the 3D cinema truck, they convey sustainability issues to schoolchildren across Taiwan. These films not only focus on environmental and sustainability education but also share inspiring "superhero" life stories from various parts of Taiwan. These stories showcase the courage and resilience people demonstrate when facing challenges and difficulties. For growing children, these stories provide not only knowledge but also emotional support, helping them find the courage and methods to overcome obstacles in their own lives.
To further expand this influence, the Public Welfare Trust - Sustainable Education Fund to co-sponsor the 3D cinema truck and its related events. We believe that through this collaboration, "Formosa" will be able to reach approximately 30,000 to 40,000 schoolchildren annually, with up to 210 screenings. We hope that the partnership between the "Formosa 3D Cinema" and the "Public Welfare Trust - Sustainable Education Fund" will plant seeds of hope in the next generation, nurturing these budding lives through the power of film.
Our commitment to accompanying and supporting children in remote areas remains strong. Through these films, we hope children will learn to face the challenges of growing up with a positive attitude, develop inner strength and courage, and pass this strength on to others. This power, built on love and conviction, will continue to grow over time, becoming a solid foundation for the future of society.
Public Welfare Trust - Sustainable Education Fund
“Public Welfare Trust – Sustainable Education Fund” was initiated by three founders: Chairman Tseng Guo-Chiang, Supervisor Chen Sheng-Biao, and Chief Operations Resource Officer Liao Pei-Chun. It was established as an expression of gratitude for the selfless dedication of mothers to their children and was inspired by the unconditional love inherent in nature that nurtures all living things. The Company has also actively participated in various collaborative efforts with the foundation.

Donation of Second-Hand Clothing
The Company launched the "Clothing Donation for Children in Remote Areas" initiative, encouraging employees to come together and sort out clothing that their children no longer wear but is still in good condition. The collected clothing includes items for both boys and girls, covering various age groups from toddlers to junior high school students. After the Company thoroughly cleans and organizes the clothing, it is then distributed to children in remote areas with heartfelt care and goodwill.
Environmental Protection
By taking concrete actions, Genii Idea has been proactively increasing its employees' awareness of environmental issues. These initiatives encompass organizing beach cleanup events, joining the Earth Hour campaign by turning off lights, and conducting weekly sustainability news sharing sessions as our way to gradually integrate environmental consciousness into employees' daily routines.
Sustainable3taiwan and Geniideas × Sky Art Vegan Village
The first coastal cleanup collaboration between the Public Welfare Trust - Sustainable Education Fund, a public trust, and the Sky Art Vegan Village, took place with Shuangxi Senior High School in New Taipei City. Through a five-sense experience, students were inspired to develop empathy, prompting them to change their own habits and, in turn, influence those around them to join the cause of loving and sustaining the Earth. Initially targeting high school students, the program aims to expand participation to people of all ages. The goal is to inspire action from the heart, leading participants to learn valuable lessons not found in textbooks, but crucial for future generations, while also provoking thoughtful reflection.
In the second half of the year, the program was enriched with new team-building games, including a marine debris-themed puzzle game. Participants used existing resources to assemble puzzles, challenging others to guess the subject. The activity culminated in a large-scale trading simulation, modeled after ancient barter systems, where resources were exchanged, and points were tallied. Communication is essential for building long-term relationships, and through these games, participants not only engaged with sustainability topics but also learned the critical skills of interpersonal communication and expression.
Additionally, Sky Art Vegan Village became the first partner of the Everlasting Vitality Education Fund.
We also hope that like-minded partners from all regions of Taiwan, whether from the north, central, south, or east, involved in sustainability or environmental conservation, will be introduced to the Public Welfare Trust - Sustainable Education Fund, so that we can create more opportunities for collaboration and contribute to a sustainable future.
