To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Dalian Economic and Technological Development Zone, we have launched a special series, Four Decades of Us Special Program.

In this episode, we're honored to have Ladon Ghalili, co-founder & director of Epoch Technologies (Dalian) Co Ltd, share her connections with the Zone.

In the 1980s, a TV program about China sparked Ladon's curiosity in the mysterious country, who was living in the United States at the time. In 1989, Ladon and her husband visited the Dalian Development Zone for the first time. At that time, there was no extensive road network and the infrastructure was still under development. Over the past 35 years, the Zone has undergone dramatic changes.

Epoch was founded in 1993 and relocated to the Dalian Economic and Technological Development Zone in 2016. Over the past 30 years, the company has evolved from producing simple electronic products to becoming one of the few high-tech smart enterprises in the Zone.

The company places great emphasis on the growth of its employees, encouraging them to further their education, participate in volunteer activities, and providing great childcare support.

Ladon's children also completed their education in the Dalian Economic and Technological Development Zone. Today, they speak fluent Chinese and have become true bridges between East and West.
