Acer was not invented, but founded in 1976 by Stan Shih (施振榮), his wife Carolyn Yeh, and five others as Multitech in Hsinchu City, Taiwan. The company began with eleven employees and US$25,000 in capital. Initially, it was primarily a distributor of electronic parts and a consultant in the use of microprocessor technologies. It produced the Micro-Professor MPF-I training kit, then two Apple II clones-the Microprofessor II and III-before joining the emerging IBM PC compatible market and becoming a significant PC manufacturer. The company was renamed Acer in 1987.

Today, Acer is a multinational company with headquarters in Taipei, Taiwan. It is one of the world's leading technology companies, with a strong presence in the laptop and desktop computing market. Acer also manufactures a wide range of other products, including smartphones, tablets, servers, and storage devices.
