  • 👋 Time to say goodbye — and thank you!   Yesterday, we said farewell to our interns Leon Schönfeld and Irena Chih-Yen Tzeng, who supported our Market Entry and Business Alliance Team over the past months.   As part of his legal clerkship (Rechtsreferendariat), Leon contributed to our office by handling legal inquiries, drafting and reviewing contracts, and supporting legal aspects of company foundation. His structured approach and thorough research strengthened our legal advisory services and helped German and Taiwanese companies navigate legal questions more confidently.   Irena supported our Business Alliance Team with great dedication, contributing to the preparation of delegation visits, organizing events, conducting market research, and assisting companies from both Taiwan and Germany with their inquiries. Her strong intercultural understanding and commitment made her a valuable asset to our team.   Thank you both for your great support and dedication — it was a pleasure having you on the team! We wish you all the best for your next steps. 🌟 👋 離別在即,我們滿懷感謝地說聲再見!   昨天我們歡送了兩位實習生 — Leon Schönfeld 和曾芷妍(Irena Tzeng),他們在過去幾個月裡加入了我們的市場進入與活動、專案暨政府關係組,帶來滿滿能量與支持!   Leon 以他的法律實習身份(Rechtsreferendariat)加入團隊,協助處理法律諮詢、合約撰寫與審閱,還有公司設立的法務相關事務。他的細心與條理為我們的法律服務大大加分,也幫助台德企業更有信心地面對法律問題。   Irena 則全力支援活動專案暨政府事務組,不只協助籌備訪團與活動,還負責市場研究、企業對接等多項工作。她出色的跨文化溝通能力和積極態度,讓人印象深刻!   謝謝你們的努力與付出,很開心能與你們一起共事!祝福你們未來一切順利,前程似錦 🌟   #PartnerInTaiwan #InternshipExperience #LegalInternship #Delegations #TaiwanGermany
