Early life and education

Arthur Huang was born in Taiwan in 1978 and moved to the United States at age 11. He graduated from Cornell University with a degree in architecture and structural engineering. At Cornell University, Arthur was awarded the Charles Goodwin Sands Memorial Medal and academic leadership award for his work in design and technical performance.
Continuing his search for multi-disciplinary professional training, he graduated from Harvard University with a Master of Architecture degree in 2004 with special interest invested in green business development. At the age of 26, Huang taught as a full-time at Tunghai University Architecture Program in Taiwan for two years, and he subsequently continues his teaching as part-time assistant professor at National Chiao Tung University in Taiwan, lecturing in MBA, material engineering, and architecture design courses.

Career at Miniwiz

During his teaching life, he was aware that there were many who spoke of environmental issues, but few who had developed appealing products. Hence, he established Miniwiz in March 2005, which was registered and located in Taipei, Taiwan. Miniwiz deals with post consumer recycling technology, built infrastructure and architectural solutions. Miniwiz has been challenging the existing linear supply chain by using post-consumer recycled materials for high performance applications, retail store interiors, factory campuses or consumer goods.
