Presidential Lecture Series: Patrick Gelsinger Tuesday, October 17 at 5:00 pm Loeb Playhouse, Stewart Center Intel CEO Patrick Gelsinger comes to Purdue for his lecture on revitalization of semiconductor manufacturing in the U.S. Gelsinger has been Intel’s CEO since joining the microprocessor leader in February 2021 and also serves on the company’s board of directors. Gelsinger
has more than four decades of technology leadership and experience driving innovation, with 30 of those years serving in Intel engineering and executive roles. Before rejoining Intel, he was CEO of VMware, where he transformed the company into a recognized
global leader in cloud infrastructure, enterprise mobility and cybersecurity – almost tripling its annual revenue. He began his career in 1979 at Intel, becoming its first chief technology officer and serving as senior vice president and general manager of
the Digital Enterprise Group. He managed the creation of key industry technologies like USB and Wi-Fi. Gelsinger also was architect of the original 80486 processor, led 14 microprocessor programs and played key roles in the Intel Core and Intel Xeon processor
families, leading to Intel becoming the world’s preeminent microprocessor supplier. Learn more at
