New Senior Vice President and CTO at NXP
Lars Reger has been appointed Senior Vice President (SVP) Technology and Chief Technology Officer (CTO) at NXP with immediate effect.
He will report directly to Kurt Sievers, President at NXP, and David Reed, Executive Vice President, Technology and Operations. In his new role, Lars Reger is responsible for technical leadership, management of business innovation processes and IP generation, cross-divisional strategic planning and the management of key competence centers for safety and security.
"As CTO of NXP, I look forward to further developing the innovation and technology roadmap for the various NXP business areas - from cars, mobile devices and Industry 4.0 to the Internet of Things, communication and infrastructure," says Lars Reger. "The potential for NXP is huge. After all, all smart devices, whether cleaning robots or self-driving electric cars, are based on the same principles: they all need sensors, processors, networking and smart actuators - combined with first-class safety standards. In addition to the scalability of our platforms across various markets, I can see that NXP can benefit significantly from edge computing in particular. This is one of our greatest strengths."
Lars Reger was most recently CTO of the Automotive business unit and headed up research and development activities in the automotive sector as well as the new customer business. Before joining NXP, he was Director of Business Development and Product Management in the Connectivity business unit at Continental, Head of Process Technology and Product Development at Infineon and held various IP and engineering positions at Infineon and Siemens.
