The TSMC CEO Succession Plan!
The foundry executive shuffle continues at Samsung, GlobalFoundries, and TSMC. Some expected, some not, the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. As I have mentioned before I have no inside knowledge as to who will be named as Dr. Morris Chang’s successor but here is my candidate for the next TSMC CEO.
First, the executive shuffle: Mike Noonen is no longer Executive Vice President, Global Products, Design, Sales & Marketing at GlobalFoundries. This came as a shock to me as the changes I witnessed during his tenure were amazing. Hopefully Mike will take a CEO position in EDA or IP and continue with the transformation of the semiconductor industry. John McClure also left GlobalFoundries, John was Mike’s #2 guy. John is now with Intel’s Mobile Communications group. In fact, Intel has hired quite a few GF people so they are definitely serious about the foundry business.
