In response to shifting geopolitical landscapes and evolving customer demands, Taiwanese radio-frequency antenna maker Auden is accelerating both its overseas expansion and technology transformation. The company plans to simultaneously launch a new factory in northern Vietnam and a new headquarters in Bade, Taoyuan, in July 2026, while shifting its technological focus from traditional passive antennas to active modules that integrate algorithms, targeting the satellite communications Ka-band market.

As global demand for satellite communications accelerates, Taiwan's role in the supply chain is beginning to shift. On April 2, BWant announced a new partnership with National Taipei University of Technology and Pyras Technology, alongside Canada-based SpaceBridge, to build a localized testing ecosystem aimed at connecting Taiwanese manufacturers more directly with global satellite operators.
