Childhood in Germany

Andreas "Andy" von Bechtolsheim was born on September 30, 1955, in Hängeberg am , a small locality in , district, , , as the second of four children to a of modest means. His father worked as an elementary school teacher, while his mother managed the household; the resided on a leased farm about a mile from the nearest village, surrounded by meadows, forests, and with the visible in the distance, creating an isolated rural environment without or close neighbors. This setting fostered and curiosity, as young Bechtolsheim spent much of his early years exploring the natural surroundings and developing an innate interest in mechanics and technology. From around age four or five, Bechtolsheim displayed a fascination with how devices functioned, often disassembling household items like reel-to-reel tape recorders and reassembling them to understand their inner workings. By age six, he began constructing simple electric motors using scavenged wires and magnets, progressing in the early 1960s to basic electrical experiments and, by the late 1960s, to more advanced electronics involving transistors. He converted his parents' basement into a makeshift workshop, where he built projects such as a frequency counter with plasma display tubes for a local car racing club, honing skills that would later define his career in engineering. In 1963, when Bechtolsheim was eight years old, his family relocated to , , for his father's work, where they lived for five years and he attended a . The move from a quiet Bavarian to the bustling urban environment of marked a significant cultural shift, broadening his through exposure to diverse languages and lifestyles. The family returned to in 1968, settling in Nonnenhorn on , where Bechtolsheim continued his education. Bechtolsheim completed his secondary education, finishing high school in 1973 after skipping grades due to his advanced aptitude. He then enrolled in at the , focusing on data processing, from 1973 to 1975, supported by a German Academic Scholarship Foundation grant. During this period, he won first prize in the 1974 Jugend Forscht national science competition for an ultrasonic fluid flow measurement experiment, demonstrating his early prowess in applied engineering. His burgeoning passion for , sparked by limited access to computers at university, prompted him to seek opportunities abroad in 1975.

SEC settlement

In March 2024, the U.S. charged "Andy" Bechtolsheim, former chief development officer and chairman at , with for misappropriating and tipping material nonpublic information about Systems' impending acquisition of Communications, Inc. The allegations stemmed from Bechtolsheim's role at Arista, where he learned of the $2.6 billion deal on July 8, 2019, through a confidential conversation with a colleague at another technology company that had a business relationship with both Arista and the involved parties. Bechtolsheim allegedly passed the information to a close relative and an associate, who then arranged the writing of put option contracts in their respective accounts (400 contracts in the relative's account and 200 in the associate's) shortly after he received the tip. These trades occurred on July 8, 2019, just one day before the acquisition was publicly announced on , causing Acacia's stock price to surge by 35.1%. The options trades generated combined illegal profits of $415,726 for the relative and associate, according to the SEC complaint filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of . Bechtolsheim settled the charges on the same day they were announced, without admitting or denying the allegations, agreeing to pay of $415,726 plus prejudgment interest and a of $923,740, totaling approximately $1.34 million. The settlement, approved by the court on May 30, 2024, also imposed a five-year bar on Bechtolsheim serving as an officer or director of any . The case drew attention as an example of "shadow trading," where nonpublic information from business relationships is used to trade in related but not directly affiliated securities, potentially tarnishing Bechtolsheim's as a prominent innovator despite the relatively modest financial penalty relative to his estimated $27.4 billion net worth as of November 2025. ' stock experienced minimal immediate fluctuation following the announcement, dipping less than 1% on March 26, 2024, with no long-term adverse effects reported, and Bechtolsheim retained a role at the company as chief architect. As of November 2025, no further charges have been brought against him in connection with this matter.
