Talk about a global mindset. Tsai was born in Taiwan, attended high school in the U.S., and picked up a degree at Sophia University in Japan. (Yes, he's fluent in Chinese, Japanese, and English.) He blitzed through both high school and college and managed to graduate two years ahead of schedule. Tsai was then hired as the youngest fixed-income analyst on the payroll at Credit Suisse. Now, Tsai (together with 10 former Sophia classmates) has just launched a beta version of a new portal called eriQoo.com, available in both Japanese and English. (The formal launch is in September.) Tsai hopes to establish it as the can't-miss site for all sorts of industry, brand, and product popularity ranking data provided in a reader-friendly format. If it attracts enough traffic, Tsai thinks the online advertising will follow.
