Skyworks appoints automotive industry veteran to board

Skyworks Solutions Inc of Woburn, MA, USA (which manufactures analog and mixed-signal semiconductors) has appointed Alan S. Batey to its board of directors.

Batey most recently served as executive VP & president of North America for General Motors, as well as the global brand chief for its Chevrolet division. As a member of the senior leadership team, he was responsible for the firm’s largest and most profitable region, with over $100bn in revenue and more than 100,000 staff. His career spans more than 39 years with GM, where he held senior management positions in operations, marketing and sales around the world. Batey completed GM’s senior executive program at Harvard University and received a certificate in Mechanical Engineering Maintenance Craft Studies from The City and Guilds of London Institute.

“His deep automotive experience and insights will be invaluable, particularly as wireless connectivity becomes increasingly vital for today’s connected cars and emerging autonomous vehicles,” comments Skyworks’ chairman David J. Aldrich.

“I look forward to leveraging my global experience in the automotive industry to help Skyworks diversify across the Internet of Things, capitalize on 5G and achieve its vision of ‘Connecting Everything and Everyone, All the Time’,” says Batey.
