As for the innovation of this technology in Taiwan, it presents an innovative model for improving financial service processes and establishing alternative financial ecosystems. Therefore, this paper combines regional diversity theory and geographic elements to generate an analytical framework, and explores the innovation activities of regional industries with Taiwan's application of blockchain technology in the financial technology industry. This paper adopts the qualitative research methodology. The data collection methods include second-hand data collection, field observation, and in-depth interviews. The interpretive analysis is used to analyze and interpret the data. The conclusions of this paper are three: First, the innovation of financial technology industry based on blockchain presents two ecological modes: innovation within the system and innovation outside the system. Second, the blockchain-based financial technology industry innovation is influenced by the external environment at the global, national and regional scales, covering the regulatory orientation and industrial environment. Third, key actors practice the technology learning and exchange, niche market expansion, and industry normative discussions required for financial technology industry innovation through spatial strategies such as temporary clustering and project organization.
