Fabless semiconductor company Cambridge GaN Devices (CGD) has appointed Fabio Necco as its new Chief Executive Officer.
Necco takes over from CGD Co-founder, Giorgia Longobardi, who will focus on bringing advanced, sustainable and energy-efficient power electronics solutions to market.
“Fabio is the right person with the right skill set to take CGD into its next growth phase, and I shall do all I can to support his initiatives as I transition into my new role as CMO at CGD,” said Longobardi.
Necco comes to CGD from Onsemi, the US-based semiconductor company specialised in delivering industry-leading intelligent power and intelligent sensing solutions where he was vice president and division general manager with more than 25 years’ experience in power electronics, application engineering, vehicle electrification, and data centres, all primary market focus points of CGD.
CGD’s energy-efficient GaN devices enable power electronic designers to develop sustainable, energy-efficient systems. These inherent benefits, coupled with the flexibility of the proven fabless model, make CGD uniquely positioned to exploit rapidly growing markets, which can already be seen in the exponential demand for GaN technology.
