🔌 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.
