The Bicycle Design Competition is sponsored by the Department of Industrial Technology, Ministry of Economic Affairs, R.O.C. and managed and produced by the Cycling & Health Tech Industry R&D Center. The first such competition was the "1996 Taiwan Creative Bicycle Design Competition".

　　It was followed by the "1997 Bicycle Design Competition Among Korea, Japan & R.O.C." These two competitions were welcomed with great enthusiasm by Korean and Japanese participants as well as by those from Taiwan, and so from the third year on, the competition became a global one. The sponsors anticipated that it could become a channel of communication among bicycle designers, manufacturers and aficionados from all over the world.

　　We hope that through the coming together of different design concepts and cultures, bicycle product design can be promoted worldwide. Moreover, we also wish that a way of life incorporating bicycling could be spread worldwide, and make a contribution to improve environmental conditions. We take great pleasure in inviting you to participate in the ONLY worldwide bicycle design competition!

台灣自行車出口量曾是世界第一，年產值一度超過新台幣 900 億元，是我國相當重要且具代表性的傳統產業，然而在後進國家的追趕之下，出口量於 1991 年被大陸超越，開始透露出我國自行車面對低價競爭的警訊，產業極需轉型應變。因此，科技專案投入自行車產業，除深植研發各項關鍵技術，協助業者降低成本與提升品質，亦積極­帶動業者轉向新材料、新功能、新用途的高單價車種發展，進而開拓品牌與通路，其中非常重要的一步棋，就是於 1996 年開始舉辦自行車設計比賽，為當時略顯暮氣的自行車產業，注入一股新能量，並且持續刺激創新設計概念融入百年歷史的自行車產品，賦予高度附加價值與活化新生命。

　　過去的自行車設計作品，雖已逐漸注重產品性能的提昇，近幾年來，更因全球經濟與技術的大幅改變，整個市場的消費生態已與過去大不相同，消費者開始去注意不同生活所帶來的新­需求，包括穿戴式的設計趨勢、講求提高騎乘舒適性的新騎乘方式自行車，或是搭配其他能源之驅動模式，甚至是與數位等流行性產品之意象結合等，這些生活的改變都可以在IBD­C設計比賽所產生之創意與流行趨勢中發現，亦即此比賽實已能充分符合國際趨勢與潮流，並且透露出未來新的生活模式。
