🔌 From factory floor to Apple’s inner circle

Wang Laichun didn’t start in a boardroom. She started on the assembly line.

  • In the 1980s, she was a factory worker at Foxconn, learning electronics manufacturing from the ground up.

  • In 2004, she co-founded Luxshare Precision, focusing on the unglamorous essentials: connectors and cables.

  • Today, Luxshare is one of Apple’s most critical suppliers, assembling AirPods and producing core components for iPhones and wearables.

Wang builds the infrastructure Apple can’t run without — and has grown Luxshare into a manufacturing giant worth tens of billions.
