Anokiwave Inc of San Diego, CA, USA, which provides highly integrated silicon core chips and III-V front-end integrated circuits for millimeter-wave (mmW) markets and active electronically scanned array (AESA)-based terminals, has added to its leadership team and expanded into the Asia-Pacific region with the appointment of Alan Chang as director of Asia-Pacific sales.
Chang joined Anokiwave in June. With more than18 years of sales and engineering experience, he has a proven track record of establishing new markets, building distributor relations, and leading sales growth in Asia-Pacific for companies such as WIN Semiconductor, Weltrend Semiconductor, ASML, and most recently MACOM (where he was country manager for Taiwan and South East Asia and was responsible for $40m in annual sales). Chang will be responsible for expanding Anokiwave's AESA Core IC solutions into new markets in the Asia-Pacific region.
"Alan's presence in Asia further strengthens our capability in this high-growth region," says chief operating officer Carl Frank. "His leadership and skills will accelerate our sales growth in the region and globally," he adds. "He will work directly with customers and partners to help anchor our presence and increase share in Asia's 5G, SatCom, and radar markets."
Chang holds Bachelor and Master of Electrical Engineering degrees from the National ChiaoTung University in Taiwan and a Master of Business Administration degree from the TiasNimbas Business School in the Netherlands.
