eric fader writes "John Tu and David Sun (of Kingston Technology Corp.) became multimillionaires when they sold a large chunk of the memory chip making company in 1996 and made headlines worldwide when they decided to share $100 million of the windfall with workers. Now they are even helping current and former Kingston employees start their own ventures. The duo will offer office space, money, and other methods of support. As a result five ventures have been created: a venture capital co., a rent an app firm, a "secret" ecommerce firm, a one man production house, and a book.. Truley unique."
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
