Career
Before founding Newegg, Chang owned ABS Computers, a mail order company selling high-end PCs and gaming systems, based in Whittier, California. Building on this experience, he founded Newegg in 2001. It has grown into a multibillion-dollar company, becoming the second-largest online-only retailer in the United States.[3]
In August 2008, it was announced that Chang would step down as the CEO and chairman of Newegg while still being a member of Board of Directors and Executive Committee. He also retained his position as the President of Newegg's China operations. He was succeeded by Tally Liu.[4] In 2010, upon the departure of Liu, Chang took up his old role as CEO of the company until 2019.[5][4] (In 2020, Anthony Chow became chief executive officer of Newegg.)
In 2013, Chang was included on the Forbes 400 list of America's 400 richest individuals.[6]
Chang owns an estimated 50% or more of Newegg.[1]
