Intel appoints new CEO: Lip-Bu Tan takes over at key time
Intel has announced a significant change in its leadership. After turbulent years that saw the once-dominant chipmaker fall behind its competitors, experienced investor and semiconductor expert Lip-Bu Tan is taking over as CEO. He replaces Pat Gelsinger, who resigned in December.

Intel $INTC faces a tough challenge to regain its position in the technology industry. The company's shares jumped nearly 13% in after-hours trading after the announcement of the new CEO choice, signaling some investor confidence. Still, the stock is down more than 54% since the beginning of the year, reflecting market concerns about the company's future.
Lip-Bu Tan comes to Intel with a wealth of experience - he led Cadence Design Systems for more than a decade, where he managed a major transformation. In addition, he is a founding partner of Walden Catalyst Ventures, an investment fund focused on semiconductors, artificial intelligence, cloud technologies and other innovative industries.
