Summary
Biing-seng Wu and Jordan Wu have become billionaires as Himax Technologies’ display-driver chips spread across premium cars, smartwatches and other screens.
The brothers built the business over 25 years after teaming up to develop chips that control how and when pixels on flat-screen displays light up.
Himax products now appear in brands including Ferrari, Porsche and Lamborghini, showing how a niche component supplier turned luxury and consumer electronics demand into a $1 billion fortune.
