Zuora创始人兼首席执行官成功三分靠自身七分靠环境

In the 1970s, Tien Tzuo’s parents immigrated to the U.S. from Taiwan and promptly settled in Brooklyn. He recalls the place differently from the hipster paradise that it is today: It was a borough of mostly immigrants and some gangs. (As a child, Tzuo was mugged twice.) But he found his way to Cornell University, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering. While in school, Tzuo realized that he had a passion for building software applications. He went to work for Oracle ORCL -0.09% for the next six years.

20世纪70年代，左轩霆的父母从台湾移民到美国，而且很快就在布鲁克林安顿了下来。在左轩霆的记忆中，当时的布鲁克林还不是如今的潮人天堂，聚居在此的主要是移民和一些黑帮（小时候他被抢过两次）。但他还是考上了康内尔大学（Cornell University），还拿到了电气工程学士学位。在学校里，左轩霆发现自己对应用软件开发很感兴趣。随后，他在甲骨文公司（Oracle）工作了六年。

Tzuo left Oracle to earn his MBA from Stanford. He eventually landed at Salesforce.com CRM 2.61% , where he stayed for nine years and became the company’s chief marketing officer and chief strategy officer. In 2007, he set off to start his own enterprise software company, and today, he runs 350-person-strong Zuora, which aims to help businesses like Boz, Zendesk, Dollar Shave Club, and Docusign manage their subscription-based services. Naturally, Salesforce.com CEO Marc Benioff is an angel investor.
