This collaboration was formally presented during the book presentation ceremony on the morning of June 3, 2025 (local time), at the NIRI Annual Conference in Boston. Representing TIRI, Executive Director Jack Chang officially delivered the first-ever authorized Chinese translation of the Investor Relations Body of Knowledge, 2nd Edition—a significant achievement in IR knowledge transfer and international integration.

“The translation effort was made possible through the contributions of TIRI board directors and senior members with extensive experience in corporate finance, capital markets, and investor communication,” said Jack Chang. “Over five months, they volunteered more than 200 hours to ensure both accuracy and localization for Taiwan's financial sector.”

The project aligns with TIRI's broader vision—under the leadership of Chairman Jonny Kuo—to establish a structured, internationally oriented IR education framework while promoting transparency, ESG engagement, and effective stakeholder communication.

Through this collaboration, TIRI members gain access to NIRI's globally respected resources, including its core curriculum and the Investor Relations Charter (IRC) credential—helping foster IR professionalism and international integration.

This milestone publication not only reflects TIRI's progress in institutionalizing IR education, but also lays the groundwork for cross-border knowledge exchange and deeper regional collaboration in Asia's IR landscape.
