The Silicon Valley Chinese American Computer and Commerce Association (SVCACA) is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting entrepreneurship, innovation, and community involvement within the Chinese American community in the Silicon Valley region.

Our mission is to provide a platform for entrepreneurs, professionals, and community leaders to connect, collaborate, and succeed. We strive to foster innovation, knowledge sharing, and cross-cultural understanding through a variety of programs and events.

The SVCACA has been active for the past 40 years, and is the oldest high-tech organization of its kind in Silicon Valley. SVCACA is comprised of many computer enterprises with thousands of employees and aggregate revenues in the billions of dollars, and also various business entities in the ecosystem including real estate and banking.

In 1980, when the computer revolution was erupting in Silicon Valley, groups of Chinese science students brought computer technology back to Taiwan and began producing hardware to export back to the United States. Other groups of students many of whom are now members of the SVCACA seized the opportunity to import these products, assemble them into PC systems, and distribute all throughout the United States. This trade figured strongly in the growth of Taiwan as well as the general technological and economic developments of the United States.

Today, much of Taiwan’s computer manufacturing operations have been moved to Mainland China, and subsequently all over the world. Our Association’s relations have shifted alongside this trend. Nonetheless, the computer electronics industry has been booming in Taiwan, and the application has expanded from original computers and semiconductor into consumer electronics and electronic components. We continue to play a key role in bridging Taiwanese companies from Silicon Valley, to Taiwan, to all over the world.

SVCACA has become a premier platform for Chinese American businesses and entrepreneurs to collaborate and exchange information in the Silicon Valley. We offered a wide range of programs and events designed to support the Chinese American community in Silicon Valley. These include: Networking events: Our networking events provide an opportunity for members to connect with other professionals and entrepreneurs in the region, exchange ideas, and develop partnerships.

Business workshops: We organize workshops and seminars on a range of topics related to entrepreneurship and business development, featuring experienced speakers and industry experts.

Community outreach: We are committed to giving back to our community, and organize community service and volunteer events throughout the year.

矽谷美華科技商會（SVCACA）是一個非營利組織，致力於在矽谷地區的華裔社區中推廣創業精神、創新以及社區參與。

我們的使命是為企業家、專業人士和社區領袖提供一個平台，使他們能夠連接、協作並取得成功。我們通過各種項目和活動來促進創新、知識共享和跨文化理解。SVCACA在過去40年中一直活躍，是矽谷最古老的此類高科技組織之一。SVCACA由眾多電腦企業組成，擁有數千名員工，總收入達數十億美元，同時還包括生態系統中的各種商業實體，如房地產和銀行業。

在1980年，當電腦革命在矽谷興起時，一批台灣學生將電腦技術帶回台灣，並開始生產硬體，出口回美國。其他學生群體，其中許多人現已成為SVCACA的成員，抓住了這個機會，將這些產品進口，組裝成個人電腦系統，並在全美各地銷售。這種貿易對台灣的發展以及美國的技術和經濟發展起到了重要作用。

如今，台灣的計算機製造業務大多已經轉移到中國大陸，隨後擴展到全球各地。我們協會的關係也隨之發展。然而，台灣的電腦電子行業依然繁榮，應用範圍已經從原有的電腦和半導體擴展到消費電子產品和電子元件。我們繼續在將台灣企業從矽谷連接到台灣及世界各地的過程中發揮關鍵作用。

SVCACA已成為華裔美國企業和企業家在矽谷合作和交流信息的首要平台。我們提供了廣泛的計劃和活動，旨在支持矽谷的華裔社區。其中包括：

• 社交活動：我們的社交活動為會員提供了一個與區域內其他專業人士和企業家交流、分享想法和發展合作夥伴關係的機會。

• 商業研討會：我們舉辦涉及創業和商業發展的各類講習班和研討會，由經驗豐富的講者和行業專家主講。

• 社區外展：我們致力於回饋社區，全年組織社區服務和志願活動。
