About CommonWealth Magazine

Founded in 1981, CommonWealth Magazine (天下雜誌) has stood as Taiwan’s most influential business publication and has also emerged as a leader in digital innovation.

CommonWealth has always seen itself as a “business magazine with compassion” and was a best-selling sensation when it first came out. It was also the first magazine in Taiwan to rigorously engage in business journalism, and was described by the New York Times as a magazine that mirrors the growth of Taiwan.

The publication has not only chronicled Taiwan's economic triumphs, the ups and downs of its leading enterprises, changes in its systems, and the price of unbridled growth, but also represented Taiwan's middle class in pushing for reform at critical moments.

CommonWealth Magazine English Website was set up in 2007 as a platform to tell Taiwan’s stories and to offer in-depth reporting on Taiwan for international readers.
