Established in 1981, Taiwan’s Golden Pin Design Award is the most influential design award in the global Huaren market. The planning and handling of the awards, the prize-giving ceremony, and all other related events are executed by Taiwan Design Research Institute (TDRI). In 2015, the Golden Pin Design Award launched three separate award competitions – the Golden Pin Design Award, the Golden Pin Concept Design Award, and the Young Pin Design Award. While each award targets a different demographic, the purpose of each is to commend outstanding innovation in design.

「金點設計獎」（Golden Pin Design Award）在1981年創立於台灣，旨在褒揚傑出的創新設計產品與作品。透過專業肯定，鼓勵企業重視產品設計與研發，以設計力增加品牌的附加價值；同時更為消費者與市場提供優質設計的認證，進而提升全民對於設計價值與設計美學的認知，共同創造美好生活品質。
