Taipei, Taiwan – September 16, 2024 – For ADATA, sustainable development is not merely a slogan, but a plan that is constantly implemented in every decision and operational detail of the company. ADATA Technology, a global memory module manufacturer, has acted in response to the issues and needs faced by the contemporary workplace with sincere intentions, a humanistic perspective, and innovative thinking. The company has consistently narrowed the distance between employee expectations and the company's well-being, winning “Best Workplaces™ in Taiwan” three years in a row, becoming the only Taiwanese technology brand to be awarded in three consecutive years. ADATA has also received “Great Place to Work Certification™” for two consecutive years in Taiwan, the United States, Brazil, Mexico, and Greater China, and won “Best Companies to Work for in Asia” five times, demonstrating the achievements of ADATA's global employer brand! In a departure from traditional talent management philosophies, ADATA observes global political, economic, social, and cultural trends, and understands that creating a comprehensively caring workplace is not just about meeting the basic needs of employees for food, clothing, housing, transportation, and increasing salary and rewards. It is also necessary to create a friendly and equal working environment, care for the physical and mental health of employees, provide a more flexible working model, provide inclusive learning for all employees, supply cross-generational welfare programs, and strive to create an innovative workplace that keeps pace with the times by being diverse and inclusive. This type of talent management further enhances employees' sense of belonging and encourages them to grow and be promoted within the company, thus developing sustainably with the company as a whole. ADATA has been established for 24th years and the company is in its golden stage of explosive expansion. Simon Chen, founder and chairman of ADATA, constantly emphasizes: Talent is the most important thing in pushing ADATA to a higher level of sustainability and is the company’s most precious foundation. Strengthening ADATA's selection, education, employment, and retention systems and integrating talent with national policies and international development are all human resource management philosophies that ADATA actively develops based on its people-oriented thinking. Therefore, ADATA breaks the traditional discrimination based on gender and age, not only being the first in the industry to increase the proportion of female directors to over half; but also aims to create an environment where young, middle-aged, and senior generations can thrive together in the workplace. From the very beginning of recruitment, the company has continued to promote a "Freshmen Cultivation" program, using comprehensive support to attract talent and then cultivate these new employees. At the same time, the company also provides for the career and family growth needs of young and middle-aged employees through diverse and flexible working models and implements a generous employee stock ownership trust to provide professional planning for employees’ retirement finances. ADATA respects the professionalism and experience of middle-aged and older employees, increasing the number of middle-aged and older employees while providing diverse development to allow middle-aged and older employees room for growth. Compared with workers who face the challenge of job replacement due to the rise of AI, ADATA is committed to developing a people-centered, sustainable, friendly and inclusive workplace. When Simon Chen was invited to give a speech at the "Best Workplaces™ in Taiwan Award Ceremony," he was very grateful for the contributions of employees and emphasized the importance of corporate planning for an excellent workplace. He stated: "Today, the most important key to ADATA occupying a place in the global technology industry is 'talent.' We create an excellent working environment so that colleagues can develop their strengths and continue to grow, demonstrate competitiveness and team spirit, and achieve common success for ADATA." ADATA has been committed to building an excellent workplace that is sustainable, inclusive, friendly, and equal for many years and these efforts have directly contributed to the company's recognition one of the "Best Companies to Work for in Asia" for five consecutive years. The company has also obtained "Great Place to Work Certification™" in Taiwan, the United States, Brazil, Mexico, and Greater China. "HR Asia" and "Great Place to Work" surveys found that ADATA "encourages colleagues to be brave in innovation," "builds an inclusive workplace," "promotes community participation," "creates a good working environment," and "treats all employees equally regardless of race, gender or age" and has been unanimously recognized by employees around the world for its diverse and inclusive workplace environment. ### About ADATA – Innovating the Future ADATA Technology is the world's second-largest manufacturer of DRAM memory and branded solid state drives, ranking 19th among Best Taiwan Global Brands.
