The chairman of Acorn Campus Taiwan, Chen Wufu, once hailed as the "God of Entrepreneurship in Silicon Valley," studied in the Computer Science PhD program at the University of California, Berkeley. In the 1990s, responding to the booming U.S. tech industry, he founded multiple companies that were either acquired by large enterprises or successfully went public. In 2000, he established the Acorn Campus Incubation Centers in Silicon Valley, USA, and Shanghai, serving as chairman. In 2014, he refocused his efforts on Taiwan and founded Acorn Campus Taiwan.
