= Early Life = Zhonghan (John) Deng (邓中翰) (born in September, 1968) is a Chinese electrical engineer and Internet entrepreneur.He is a co-founder of Vimicro International Corporation, and currently operates as its chairman and chief executive officer. Dr. Deng is an elected member of the 10th and 11th National People's Congress, currently serves as the vice president of China Association for Science and Technology. Dr. Deng received a bachelor degree in University of Science and Technology of China and a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences, a M.S. degree in Economics and a M.S. degree in Physics from the University of California, Berkeley.

= Career = In 1999, Dr. Deng returned to China from Silicon Valley and co-founded Vimicro Corporation in the Zhongguancun High-Tech district of Beijing. He applied this technology and led the Vimicro engineering team to invent and successfully develop the world's first single-chip high-performance, low-power video signal-processing VLSI CMOS chipset for PC/laptop web cameras. Vimicro has put an end to 's "non-chip" history in the area of chip design and has won recognition and respect throughout the world. Today Vimicro, which owns more than 1600 patents. , dominates the PC camera processor market with 60 percent global market share and counts leading international companies such as Samsung, Philips, Sony, HP, Logitech, Lenovo and Huawei as customers. In 2005, as the inventor and global leader in webcam chipset technology, Vimicro made history as the first integrated-circuit design company in China listed on the NASDAQ stock exchange. In 2008, Dr. Deng led the China "National Starlight Integrated-Circuit Project”as the Chief Executive at the State Key Laboratory of Digital Multimedia IC Design Technology as Chief Scientist to innovate and develop advanced algorithms, architecture, and semiconductor chipsets for the field of networked video surveillance technology.  Dr. Deng’s most recent technical contribution and achievement, was Vimicro's contribution to developing the SVAC (Surveillance Video and Audio Coding) standard, which was officially approved as the Chinese national standard in 2011.  SVAC is the world’s first and the most-advanced video technology standard for use in leading-edge, networked video surveillance applications, which employ Cloud Computing and Big Data for public safety and security.  Prior to founding Vimicro, Dr. Deng co-founded Pixim, Inc. in Silicon Valley, which was acquired by Sony. Before Pixim, he worked as a research scientist at the IBM T.J. Watson Research Center at Yorktown Heights, NY, after graduating from UC Berkeley.
