Do we know if Suresh left GF to come to POET or if he was inbetween positions at the time of the hire? Would be interesting to know when he left GF...

Hi Steve,

Good question. I refer you to Disco68's post, Semicon West July 2015:

Dr. Suresh Venkatesan is Vice President of Alliance Technology Development at GLOBALFOUNDRIES. He joined GLOBALFOUNDRIES in 2009 from Freescale Semiconductor, where he was Director, NVM technology and Foundry development, within the Microcontroller Solutions Group.

The same release also states, "Suresh holds seventeen U.S. patents, and has co-authored over 35 technical papers.

It's a good day for POET investors.

Cheers...Pauline
