Intel announced a broad reorganization into 5 business units:
- The Mobility Group, led by Sean Maloney and Dadi Perlmutter , will develop platforms for notebook PCs and handheld computing and communications devices, and is aimed at making the growing numbers of different mobile devices work together better and easier to use.
- The Digital Enterprise Group, led by Pat Gelsinger and Abhi Talwalkar, will develop computing and communications infrastructure platforms for end-to-end solutions in businesses.
- The Digital Home Group, led by Don MacDonald, will develop computing and communications platforms for use by consumers in the emerging digital home, with emphasis on living room entertainment applications and consumer electronics devices.
- The Digital Health Group, led by Louis Burns, will develop products and explore business opportunities for Intel architecture products in healthcare research, diagnostics and productivity, as well as personal healthcare.
- The Channel Products Group, led by Bill Siu, will seek to expand in global markets by combining into one organization existing groups focused on developing and selling Intel products to meet the unique needs of local markets worldwide.
Intel said the platform-based organizations reflect “the ongoing convergence of computing and communications by incorporating both capabilities across the new groups.”http://www.intel.com
