BARCELONA — One Freescale executive who appears to have secured his spot in the soon-to-be merged NXP is Geoff Lees, senior vice president and general manager, responsible for Freescale’s microcontroller business.
Reached by EE Times Monday, Lees stayed mum, except to say that he used to work at NXP, before joining Freescale three years ago.
In a one-on-one interview Tuesday (March 3) with EE Times, Rick Clemmer, CEO of NXP, said, “Geoff will be coming home to us. He’s a good guy. Glad to have him back.”
