GlobalFoundries will also continue its upgrade of facilities in Singapore and Germany, which serve multiple customers across a spectrum of technologies.<\/p>\n<p>Ajit Manocha, who served as an advisor to the company&#8217;s shareholder prior to being appointed CEO of GlobalFoundries in mid-2011, will return to that role and will work closely with Jha on his transition, the company said.<br \/>\n&#8220;Ajit has played an instrumental role in making GlobalFoundries the second largest foundry in the world, delivering on customer relationships, technology leadership and operational excellence,&#8221; said Ibrahim Ajami, vice chairman of the GlobalFoundries board of directors. &#8220;Sanjay is one of the most respected leaders in the technology industry and has a proven track record of consistently delivering shareholder value. His industry background and experience as a foundry customer will position GlobalFoundries for continued growth.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This has been an incredible journey and our success thus far has been a testament to our ability to partner with leading customers in the industry. I am confident that I am leaving GlobalFoundries in a position of strength and that Sanjay will take this company to new horizons,&#8221; said Manocha.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I am thrilled to have the opportunity to lead a company with such a strong track record in an industry that I know and love. I look forward to working closely with Ajit during the transition and with a very talented global team to continue to make our customers successful,&#8221; said Jha.<\/p>\n<p>Photo Courtesy GlobalFoundries<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sanjay Jha is the new chief executive officer of GlobalFoundries.Sanjay Jha has been appointed as the new chief executive officer of GlobalFoundries.
