This year’s exhibition brought together 1,500 exhibitors from 33 countries and regions across more than 6,000 booths, setting a new record in scale and showcasing the latest technologies, applications, and future trends across the global AI ecosystem. As the world’s leading exhibition for AI Infrastructure & Ecosystems, Computers & Peripherals, and Startup Innovation, COMPUTEX 2026 concluded successfully on Friday, June 5, 2026, after running from June 2–5, 2026. Both COMPUTEX 2025 and COMPUTEX 2026 were preceded by the Jensen Huang Keynote at the Taiwan Music Center Hall, which has a seating capacity of more than 5,000 attendees, making it significantly larger than any venue at the Nangang Exhibition Center or TWTC Building. Under the theme “AI Together,” this year’s Keynote, Summit, and Forum focused on AI Computing, AI Physical AI & Robotics, AI Infrastructure & Ecosystems, Intelligent Mobility, and Next-Generation Technologies, bringing together global technology leaders, startups, and industry experts to showcase AI-driven innovations, breakthrough applications, and future trends that will shape the future of the technology industry.

“ABDI (Association of Big Data & AI) will hold one of the largest Summit in Indonesia for the theme of NextGen AI, DataSecurAI, 1 Data Indonesia, GovTechAI together with Expo INTI (Indonesia Technology and Innovation Expo) at JI Expo on August 11-13, 2026. ABDI will also discuss the success story of Taiwan AI Manufacturing and Infrastructure, so that Indonesia can also advanced its AI adoption.”

The exhibition attracted more than 111,312 buyers and visitors from 152 countries and regions, including Japan, the United States, South Korea, China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Vietnam, India, Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia, highlighting COMPUTEX’s role as a key global platform for AI industry collaboration, technology showcases, and business matchmaking. More than 100 attendees from Indonesia were present at the event, consisting primarily of traditional computer and peripheral traders, reflecting the growing interest of the Indonesian market in emerging technologies and AI-driven innovations showcased at COMPUTEX 2026.

Global Tech Leaders Gather to Define the Future of AI

This year’s COMPUTEX Keynotes featured an impressive lineup of global technology leaders, including Cristiano R. Amon, President and CEO of Qualcomm; Matt Murphy, Chairman and CEO of Marvell; Lip-Bu Tan, CEO of Intel; and Rafael Sotomayor, President and CEO of NXP Semiconductors. Their presentations explored AI-accelerated computing, edge AI, intelligent automotive platforms, and next-generation semiconductor technologies, providing valuable insights into the future direction of the AI industry. Prior to the official opening of COMPUTEX 2026, Jensen Huang, Founder and CEO of NVIDIA, delivered the Pre-COMPUTEX Keynote on June 1, 2026, at the Taipei Music Center, where he shared NVIDIA’s latest advancements, AI ecosystem developments, and the company’s vision for the future of AI infrastructure and accelerated computing.

Meanwhile, the COMPUTEX Forum reaches a record-breaking scale this year with 28 sessions over three days. The forum gathers 30 world-renowned experts from companies including NVIDIA, Microsoft, Google DeepMind, Qualcomm, Arm, and Cisco. Discussions will center on six major themes: “Robotics, Automation & Physical AI,” “AI Computing, Infrastructure & Development,” “Generative AI & Intelligent Content Applications,” “AI Devices, IoT & Edge Computing,” “Industrial AI Applications,” and “Data Intelligence, Governance & Security.” These sessions will highlight the latest technological advancements and practical applications spanning cloud-to-edge infrastructure and real-world AI deployment.

“ABDI (Association of Big Data & AI) will hold one of the largest Summit in Indonesia for the theme of NextGen AI, DataSecurAI, 1 Data Indonesia, GovTechAI together with Expo INTI (Indonesia Technology and Innovation Expo) at JI Expo on August 11-13, 2026.”

COMPUTEX 2026 Focuses on AI Infrastructure, Deployment & New Technology Ecosystems

As AI rapidly evolves from cloud computing into real-world deployment, COMPUTEX 2026 highlights key applications spanning AI servers, edge computing, robotics, automation, smart mobility, next-generation communications, and immersive technologies. The exhibition fully integrates the global AI supply chain while reinforcing Taiwan’s strategic role as a global hub for technological innovation and advanced manufacturing.

James C.F. Huang, Chairman of TAITRA (Taiwan External Trade Development Council) Global, stated: “COMPUTEX 2026, themed ‘AI Together,’ marks a pivotal turning point as the AI industry moves beyond the race for computing power and into real-world deployment — from manufacturing automation and elderly care to workforce transformation. Taiwan’s resilient and comprehensive ICT supply chain, combined with its ability to rapidly integrate global technologies and innovative applications, positions COMPUTEX not only as a technology showcase, but also as a key platform for global AI collaboration and future applications.”

Chairman ABDI, also CEO  PT Micronics Internusa, Dr Rudi Rusdiah invited by TAITRA Indonesia to cover Computex Taipei every year since a decade ago. If you read ABDI dan Komite.id artikel then you may know how big and the growth of Taiwan GDP and revenue every year from manufacturing and exporting Computer and Peripheral globally, now with AI Infrastructure as number one exporter, bigger than China, US or Japan.

Since 2025 and 2026 Taiwan has become the number one of exporter and manufacturer of AI Infrastructure and Ecosystems globally, beside still maintaining largest exporter of Computer and peripherals. Many Data Center (DC) supporting technologies and solutions were showcased at the exhibition, including advanced liquid cooling technologies from leading companies such as Delta and Lite-On from Taiwan, as well as Vertiv from Germany.

Driven by the rapid growth of Edge AI, Clouds, IoT,  and cross-domain integration, COMPUTEX 2026 centers on three major themes “AI Computing,” “Robotics & Smart Mobility,” and “Next-Generation Tech.” From chips and computing platforms to end-user applications, the exhibition demonstrates how AI is accelerating industrial transformation and reshaping everyday life, building a comprehensive “COMPUTEX Technology Ecosystem.”

According to TrendForce, the global market for large language models (LLMs) in robotics is projected to exceed USD 100 billion by 2028, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 48.2%. In response to the rapid rise of Physical AI and intelligent robotics, COMPUTEX 2026 introduces the brand-new “AI Robotics Zone” at TWTC Hall 1, showcasing AI robotics, smart services, autonomous mobility, and human-machine collaboration applications while connecting the global robotics supply chain

These are the reasons, every year Taiwan invited thousands of PC Distributor, agent, media from hundred of nation globally to maintain this supremacy from Computer now to AI Infrastructure.
