Intel Corporation today announced that Sean Maloney, Intel executive
vice president and chairman of Intel China, plans to retire in January.
"I am very proud of my 30 years at Intel," said Maloney. "Through those
years I've had the honor of working with some of the most brilliant
minds in the world, from Andy Grove to Paul Otellini, and on the most
cutting-edge technology. I worked on three continents and saw the world
as a representative of Intel. I saw firsthand the astonishing growth and
potential of China and the Asian region."
Maloney, 56, is a veteran of the semiconductor industry. He joined Intel
in 1982 and has held a number of senior management positions with the
company during his career. Most recently, he served as the first
chairman of Intel China. In this role, he has been responsible for the
implementation of an Intel-wide strategy for long-term success in China
as well as leadership development for Intel China's management team. He
has lived in Beijing since July 2011. Previously, he served as
co-general manager of the Intel Architecture Group and chief sales and
marketing officer.
"Intel will always be part of my life, and I feel privileged to have
been one of the company's leaders," Maloney said. "I look forward to my
retirement and spending more time with my family. Intel is full of the
best and brightest people I have ever known."
"Sean is a well-known visionary for Intel and the computing industry,"
said Otellini, president and CEO of Intel. "In the '90s he identified
the impact Asia would have as a technology market as well as an
innovation hub for the industry, and last year he unveiled Intel's
efforts to re-invent computing with Ultrabook devices. He leaves a major
mark on Intel and the industry, and I wish Sean and his family well as
they move on to the next chapter in his life."
In February 2010, Maloney suffered a stroke and took a medical leave of
absence from Intel. His arduous path to regain his speech and make a
full physical recovery inspired Intel employees and countless others.
Maloney began his Intel career in the company's European headquarters
where he spent 9 years in management roles in applications engineering,
sales and marketing. From 1992 to 1995, he served as technical assistant
to Grove, Intel's chairman and CEO. In 1995, Maloney moved to Hong Kong
to manage Intel's sales and marketing activities in Asia Pacific and
returned to the United States in 1998 to become head of Intel's
worldwide sales organization. Three years later he took over as head of
Intel Communications Group and became co-manager of the Intel Mobility
Group in 2004.
