Margaret Kao
Chairman and CEO, Marketech International
Taiwan
Within a decade of her former employer spinning off United Microelectronics Corp. and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC), Margaret Kao launched Marketech International to make the specialized materials and equipment needed for their chipmaking factories. Kao says she had been looking for a “breakthrough” from her job as a section head at Industrial Technology Research Institute, a government-backed tech incubator, when she set up Marketech in 1988 with a colleague. They went on to build the toolmaker into a global supplier of high-tech machinery and turnkey facilities and services, from clean rooms to water systems, for the semiconductor, optoelectronics and biotech industries. Today, Marketech counts TSMC, Dutch chipmaking-equipment giant ASML and U.S. memory chip maker Micron Technology as customers.
In 2024, the Taipei-based company’s sales rose for a fifth consecutive year, up 8% to NT$60.7 billion ($2 billion), as foundries continued to increase capacity amid red-hot demand for advanced chips. “We never slack off, and we have been continuously working to expand the company’s capabilities,” says Kao, who holds a master’s degree in business from National Taiwan University. “When our customers achieve upbeat results, their growth drives our company’s growth.”
Foxconn-backed Taiwanese industrial computer maker Ennoconn acquired a 47% stake in Marketech for NT$4.9 billion in 2018, subsequently trimming it to 38.5%, which is now worth NT$18 billion. Kao retains a 6% stake.
