Early Life
Born in 1967 in Guangdong province, China, Wang Laichun grew up in modest circumstances. She entered the electronics industry at a young age, starting her career on factory floors, gaining firsthand experience in manufacturing processes. She started working in 1988 at a Foxconn factory. This experience would later shape her understanding of production efficiency, quality control, and employee management.
Rise to Success
Wang's entrepreneurial journey began with her time at Foxconn, where she gained crucial insights into large-scale electronics production and supply chains. In 1997, she left Foxconn to start her own business with her brother, Wang Laisheng. In 2004, Wang co-founded Luxshare Precision Industry Co., Ltd. in Dongguan, China. Initially a manufacturer of cables and connectors, Luxshare quickly distinguished itself through a focus on innovation, automation, and reliability.
Key Business Strategies
Wang's leadership emphasized technological excellence and long-term partnerships with clients. A key turning point was Luxshare's partnership with Apple, becoming a major supplier and assembler for the AirPods. This led to exponential growth, expanding into wearables, smartphones, and automotive electronics. Luxshare has since become a primary manufacturing partner for Apple, rivaling established firms like Foxconn. Wang has also focused on diversification, including expansion into electric vehicles and automotive components.
