You could count on one hand the number of women among Taiwan's first generation of entrepreneurs. Yulon Group chairwoman Wu Shun-wen, who inherited the company from her husband, was among those early pioneers. In marked contrast to days gone by, entrepreneurial women are now reaping rich rewards in all sectors of the economy, from the technology and services industries to retail chains.
早年台灣第一代創業家中，女性屈指可數，承繼夫業的裕隆集團董事長吳舜文是少數拓荒者；而現在從科技業、服務業到連鎖事業，到處都有女性創業開花結果的足跡，知名者如威盛電子公司董事長王雪紅、歐德名品總經理何玉玲、亞力山大企業集團董事長唐雅君等，都是女性創業的典範。
