Fortune nomme AMD Lisa Su «l'une des femmes d'affaires les plus puissantes»


AMD's resurgence is a well threaded story already. Missteps with their Bulldozer architecture, spinning-off of their manufacturing division off to a separate entity (Global Foundries), the investment in semi-custom solutions and the launch of Zen are well documented throughout numerous articles on this publication. As such, and considering AMD's current market position - one-upping Intel in all but the lightest-threaded tasks in both consumer and enterprise markets - the fact that Fortune named her 'one of the most powerful women in business' should come as a surprise to, well, almost no-one.

La nomination est dirigée par des commentaires sur l'augmentation des revenus d'AMD de 23% en glissement annuel, ainsi que l'augmentation de 66% de la valeur des actions après le lancement des produits basés sur Zen 2. Le fait que Lisa Su est la seule femme leader dans l'industrie des semi-conducteurs ne passe pas non plus inaperçu dans la nomination.
