San Francisco (Reuters) – Lip -tan may be one of the most powerful technical executives you have not heard. He is one of the highest work on the planet, the complicated, staircase chipmaker Intel’s CEO of his performance, his performance.

Dhan, named Intel CEO on Wednesday, faces the immense challenge in turning the actions of a company that owns a “silicon” in the Silicon Valley.

Although the public does not know, his advantage is that each of Intel’s former and potential customers know him, and he has done business with him, buying one of the many startups he supported or using a software he ran away.

Dan rubbed Dan shoulders with Lisa Su and Nvidia’s Jensen Huang from advanced micro devices, and two AI chip leaders were forced to invest in Intel, according to a Reuters report. US President Donald Trump is likely to look closely to his efforts.

Dan “can improve his experience and his career, especially his career, while Indell excels,” said Independent Analyst Jack Gold. “I hope the Board will be away from its way because it is making the necessary changes.”

Lean operator

Dan, the largest ship of the semiconductor sector, 65, can use backward techniques, which helped to turn small companies, and then it became larger.

Born in Malaysia, raised in Singapore and now a natural American citizen, Dan came to the United States for his advanced education, studied at nuclear engineering at Massachusetts Technology. He then traveled to California for a business school and founded Walton International, a venture capital company, in 1987. The company was named after the pool, where writer Henry David Thorey sought an unusual life and made unusual challenges.

Don hoped that relatively small groups of start -up engineers with good chip design ideas could successfully compete against the current chip giants, and he poured money in hundreds of startups. For example, he took a share of Annapurna Labs, and then Amazon.com was the beginning of a $ 370 million, becoming the heart of its inner chip. Amazon says its own central processors are more than now from Intel.

He also invested in Nuwia, which bought for 4 1.4 billion by 2021, which is the central part of its motivation in the laptop and PC chip markets.

Dan is actively involved with the starting companies, which may become competitors or become acquaintances for Intel.
