EE Times Europe


PARIS — The first announcement to be issued at IMEC Technology Forum this week in Brussels, Belgium, is the election of Luc Van den hove as the new president and chief executive officer of the IMEC research institute.

He succeeds Gilbert Declerck, who has been elected as member of the board of IMEC International and will continue to serve IMEC as executive officer. Declerck was appointed CEO of IMEC in 1998 and, since June 1999, he has served as both president and CEO of the organization.

Van den hove started his career at IMEC as a team leader in silicide and interconnect technologies research. In 1988, he became manager of IMEC's micro-patterning group (lithography, dry etching). Since 2007, he has served as Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer.

Commenting on new appointment as president and CEO, Van den hove declared: "Since my start at IMEC, I have closely teamed with Gilbert and I'm looking forward to continue this fruitful collaboration and to build further on its success. By connecting technology and industry through research partnerships as initiated by Gilbert, I'm confident that IMEC will play an important role in providing leading-edge nanotechnology R&D which will enable solutions for a sustainable society."

Changes will become effective on July 1, 2009, IMEC specified.
