Prior to becoming chairman, Chen served as corporate president and CEO of Acer since 2014[1]. Chen is a major departure from previous Acer CEOs in that he hails from a sales and marketing background as opposed to an engineering background. Prior to joining Acer, Chen served as senior vice president of worldwide sales and marketing at TSMC.

Before joining TSMC, Chen worked for 14 years at Intel, holding a variety of sales and marketing positions. He started his tenure at Intel as a sales executive in Taiwan and later as regional sales manager for Greater China. Chen then progressed to become vice president and general manager of the Asia Pacific region before his last assignment as the corporate vice president of the Sales and Marketing Group at Intel's headquarters in California.[2]
