In 1986, after working 12 years at US-based IBM in advanced research of mass storage systems and technology, Tah-lin Hsu quit.
Many people "dropped glasses to the floor," when he quit the "golden bowl", Hsu said. But it may have been one of his most important — and fortuitous — decisions.
The holder of a bachelor's degree in physics, a master's degree in electro physics and a doctorate in electrical engineering, didn't turn to science or engineering. He went into venture capitalism and formed H&QAP.
