We actively promote local and community-based corporate social responsibility activities and designated Tainan Place Fun Centre as a "youth creativity development site". We work with several universities to provide a friendly space for youth exhibitions and performances and help support the development of human rights and character of young people.
Unplugged Music Festival
The Unplugged Music Festival celebrated its 7th anniversary in the summer of 2019. We continuously sought creators who are passionate about music with the aim of promoting new Taiwanese music to the public, discovering talents, and creating new music taste. The events have been suspended in the last two years due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In addition to organizing contests and providing players with opportunities to show off their skills, the Company also invests in the upgrade of the contest organization, rewards, and venue equipment. The event has gained fame as the "largest amateur esports event in Taiwan".
Family learning experience
SKM uses the Cultural & Educational Foundation to support children's art education and focuses on developing family experience venues so that its premises can be used for shopping as well as learning and interactive experience for family learning. We converted the 4F and 5F of Taipei Xinyi Place in 2020 and focused on the experience to create an interactive outlet and help children experience with all their senses. The venue allows families to learn in activities such as drawing in King Kong Kidsland and small classes to help children use both their arms and legs for drawing and creativity. The "multi-functional classroom" is used to create a series of fun and simple card games, painting, and oral instructions for learning programming logic, increase children's problem-solving abilities, and facilitate creativity and teamwork. The "Classroom of the Future" includes multimedia interactive displays that use media, art, illustration, logical thinking, and other interdisciplinary learning methods along with sound and light effects to create a dedicated fun club for families.
