Company History

Ulead Systems, Inc. was founded in August of 1989 by Dr. Liming Chen. The origin of the name "Ulead" is derived from the pronounciation of the company's Chinese name, which means "strength built upon friendship" -- the guiding philosophy for the company and its employees. Ulead Systems, Inc. was the first company in Taiwan to make the commitment to develop world class software that would compete in the international market. The company has its headquarters in Taipei and a subsidiary office in Torrance, California. There are currently more than 100 employees.

"Total product quality" is the byword of Ulead Systems' product delivery process. For each product, the company ensures that it has distinct benefits and that users can easily understand and utilize the capabilities of the product. Based on this principle, Ulead Systems, Inc. has released several applications for the Windows platform during the past six years: PhotoStyler® (originally licensed to Aldus and now sold to Adobe), MediaStudio™, MediaStudio Pro™, Ulead PhotoImpact™, ImagePals®, MorphStudio™. To date, more than 1.5 million copies of these products (excluding PhotoStyler®) and their derivatives have been distributed worldwide.
