Pipkin is the publicity-adverse founder of the computer accessories company Belkin International, which he sold two years ago to Taiwan-based electronics giant FoxConn for close to $1 billion. Portal is a new, ninth through twelfth grade school located on Belkin’s Playa Vista campus, where students will intern and have an inside track on Belkin jobs when they graduate.
