E Ink Celebrates the Launch of the Boston Taiwan Dragon Boat Team’s New Journey

Posted by E Ink on 2024-06-18

Amidst the gentle patter of rain on May 19, a sense of excitement and anticipation filled the air at the Fort Point Channel pier. The Boston Taiwan Dragon Boat Team (BTBC), undeterred by the weather, hosted a magnificent dragon boat lighting and launching ceremony. This event marked not just the unveiling of their new dragon boat but also the team’s aspirations for triumph at the World Dragon Boat Championships in Italy this September.

Jason Lin, who offered his support and encouragement for the first launch, reflected on the sponsorship’s origins, rooted in the belief that dragon boat rowing fosters physical and mental well-being. To his delight, the sport has since drawn E Ink colleagues into its fold. His wife, Hong Yizhen also embraced the sport, joining the Boston Mama Dragon Boat Team and gearing up for the Boston Dragon Boat Race in June. Lu Xinwei, the founding captain, attributed the team’s growth to the enthusiastic involvement of its members and expressed gratitude for the support from E Ink and other sponsors.

 

Reflecting on our history, E Ink's journey with the Boston Taiwan Dragon Boat Team began in the year 2000. Our first sponsorship was a commitment to community engagement and cultural celebration. It was a pioneering move that not only supported the team's endeavors but also marked the beginning of a long-standing relationship with the dragon boat community.

As we look back, we are filled with pride for the growth and achievements of the Boston Taiwan Dragon Boat Team, and we remain dedicated to fostering this spirited tradition.
