About this ebook
“Peter Liu has actively contributed to identifying new talents and promoting cutting-edge innovations…I am confident that this book will be a sound source of inspiration for many…and that they will be driven by the same spirit of progress and generosity.”
Albert II, Prince of Monaco
Venture capitalist, global citizen, pioneer.
From a military dependents’ village in central Taiwan to the snow-capped peaks of Switzerland for the World Economic Forum and beyond. This is a story of success, fearless innovation, and vision.
Based on interviews with Peter’s friends, colleagues, family, and Peter himself, Beyond takes us on a tour of Peter’s journey, from his role in the Taiwan Economic Miracle and his founding of leading venture capital firm WI Harper, to his bridging of the Greater China Region with the US and later involvement in the development of nuclear fusion technology. All for future generations, for Taiwan, for the world.
In this authorized biography of one of Taiwan’s most influential venture capitalists, we are offered a complete picture of the bold, charismatic, warm-hearted, and down-to-earth man behind the success – a man equally at home in the back of a taxi on a dusty road in China as dining with sparkling company on the French Riviera.
Prepare to meet visionary businessman Peter Liu and discover his life and legacy in venture capital and beyond…
“It’s not easy to find a friend like Peter, with his experience, wisdom and balanced thinking. I am thankful for the moment that I met him. It has significant added value to know someone like Peter. His vision and plans are very productive.”
Turki Almadi, Ambassador of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to the People's Republic of China
