An interview with Hichem M'Saad, ASM's new CEO
On May 13, Hichem M'Saad started his new role as ASM's Chief Executive Officer as Benjamin Loh’s tenure came to a close.
There has never been a more exciting time to be in the semiconductor industry, and ASM lies at the very heart of it. Our equipment and solutions are the driving force behind the technologies the world relies on every day, from phones and laptops to electric vehicles and medical devices.
As the new era of AI expands exponentially, the demand for smaller, faster, more energy-efficient chips is greater than ever. ASM's innovative and disruptive technologies are playing a crucial part in this revolution.
We're an innovation company, but we're also the disruption company.
Hichem joined ASM almost a decade ago, in 2015, as the senior vice president and general manager of the Thermal Products business unit.
In 2022, he was appointed as a member of our Management Board and Chief Technology Officer, overseeing our technical product portfolio, platform group, and future technologies. An experienced, passionate leader, Hichem has been instrumental in ASM's leading technologies and products and a key driver in our 'Growth through Innovation' strategy.
