PROFILE |
 |
The Internet's growing like a weed in Taiwan, thanks in part to Seednet -- the ISP operation of Digital United. A leading Taiwanese ISP with 16 points of presence in the region, the company provides Internet access to more than 500,000 dial-up customers and some 1,900 leased line corporate clients. It's also launching high-speed access using both cable modems and ADSL (asymmetric digital subscriber line) technology. Other services include Web hosting, server colocation, and virtual private networks. Digital United also operates a Chinese language Web portal. The non-profit Institute for Information Industry owns 18% of the firm, which began as a state-funded research project in 1990 and was spun off in 1998.
