LONDON – Europe's largest chip company STMicroelectronics NV (Geneva, Switzerland) laid out details of its corporate strategy to financial analysts here today (May 16) as it winds down ST-Ericsson, its failed joint venture in mobile processors.
The strategic plan had already been announced in December 2012 along with the decision to exit from ST-Ericsson, but Georges Penalver, chief strategy officer for ST, told the analysts community that ST is being constructed as two product-oriented business segments that would each be financially sustainable blocks.

The second block is ST's embedded processing business and is the non-automotive digital business including microcontrollers and processors for digital consumer applications.
