National Development Fund, Executive Yuan
The National Development Fund (NDF) of the Executive Yuan is the premier strategic investment arm of the Taiwanese government. For the venture capital (VC) community and emerging enterprises, the NDF serves not merely as a capital provider, but as a transformative lever and a foundational pillar for industrial evolution.
Distinct from commercial VCs driven solely by internal rates of return (IRR), the NDF’s core mission is to catalyze national industrial policy. Through diverse instruments—including Direct Investment, Angel Portfolios, and Sector-Specific Strategic Programs—the NDF channels liquidity into the "Twin Transitions" of Digitalization and Net-Zero, as well as smart robotics and next-generation semiconductors.
Exponential Value Creation: As of year-end 2025, the NDF manages an asset base of approximately USD$100 Billion. This represents a staggering 100-fold growth over the original treasury endowment of NT$30.9 billion(around USD$1 Billion), showcasing its long-term stability and efficacy.
With an annual investment budget exceeding NT$10 billion, the NDF acts as a cornerstone investor. Its presence is designed to crowd-in private capital, effectively de-risking high-potential ventures for private-sector VCs.
As a strategic co-investor, the NDF prioritizes governance stability by leaving operational control in the hands of founding teams and professional VC leads.
