  • Charles B. Wang (born August 19, 1944) is the co-founder of Computer Associates International, Inc. (now CA, Inc.) and owner of the New York Islanders ice hockey team. He was born in Shanghai, but moved to Queens, NY, when he was eight years old. He attended the elite Brooklyn Technical High School in Fort Greene, Brooklyn. He earned a bachelor's degree in mathematics from Queens College in New York, and began working at Columbia University. In 1976, Wang started Computer Associates on credit cards at the age of 31. He has since authored two books to help executives master technology: Techno Vision (1994, McGraw-Hill) and Techno Vision II (1997, McGraw-Hill). Wang retired from Computer Associates in 2002. He is currently the majority owner of the New York Islanders hockey franchise, which he became a part-owner in 2000. He later bought out the share of business partner Sanjay Kumar in 2004, and acquired the New York Dragons Arena football franchise. He is the master developer of the Lighthouse, the transformation of the Nassau Coliseum and surrounding 77 acres. The project will include a five-star hotel; condominiums; an Athletic Complex featuring four ice rinks, a basketball facility and state-of-the-art health club that will serve as the Islanders’ practice facility and also be open to the public; a Sports Technology Center; open air plaza; and conference center. He is also founder of Plainview Properties, a real estate firm which recently announced a major development in Plainview, New York: Old Plainview - a traditional village combining townhouses, apartments, offices, restaurants, a Hyatt hotel and recreation space using “smart growth” concepts. Residents of Plainview, headed by the group Concerned Citizens of Plainview-Old Bethpage, have resisted the project from the start. (en)
