David Sun occupe actuellement le rang #65 du classement mondial StarFortune (secteur technologie). Fortune nette estimée : $35.8 B ($0 sur 24h).
David Sun cofounded and helps run Kingston Technology, which makes storage and memory products, as COO from a cubicle on the sales floor.
With longtime partner John Tu, Sun launched a computer memory business out of a garage and sold it to now defunct PC maker AST a few years later.

The company's name comes from one of John Tu's favorite bands, the Kingston Trio.
