TAIPEI, Taiwan--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#Automotives--Are you a buyer looking for the latest advancements in eco-friendly micro-mobility? If so, now�s your chance. To familiarize European buyers with the Taiwanese scooter industry, Taiwan Excellence � the symbol of the best and most innovative products from Taiwan � recently hosted a webinar titled �2021 Taiwan Excellence Scooter Industry Webinar: Hop on Your Own Adventure.� Now available on the Taiwan Excellence YouTube channel, the webinar provides an exclusive look at some of the country�s most technologically-advanced scooter design and component firms that are dramatically improving performance, durability and safety for scooter drivers worldwide.
