Senior hardware technology VP Johny Srouji seems to have a magic touch
The man who leads Apple’s silicon development teams, Johny Srouji, Apple’s senior vice president of hardware technologies, just won a prestigious industry award in recognition of his huge contribution to the semiconductor industry.
You could easily dismiss the award as just another industry fillip, yet another chance for some sales team somewhere to generate revenue and gather potential prospects in some wine them dine them industry do.
That, after all, is usually what these things are.
However, what sets this apart is both the host, Imec, and the meaning: winning the award absolutely justifies Apple’s investment in processor design, even back to the purchase of PA Semi.
