We have our art gallery in the main lobby, and we also hold art & cultural workshops, recreational activities, and many other activities. We encourage employees to directly support those low-budget performing art groups by attending performances. In general, we hope to enhance employees’ aesthetic literacy, vitalize the art scene, ensure employees have quality leisure time and humanism and then create a people-oriented corporate culture.
