“We are excited to welcome Dion to the board,” said Intel
Chairman Omar Ishrak. “He brings a deep understanding of the Intel
customer experience and a wealth of technical industry knowledge
spanning client, cloud and network computing. Dion also shares
Intel’s strong commitment to corporate responsibility, having
championed diversity and inclusion as well as sustainability while
leading HP.”
Weisler, 52, has extensive global executive experience,
including serving as the president and chief executive officer of
HP Inc. from 2015 to 2019. Prior to that, he held senior executive
roles at HP Co. and Lenovo Group Inc., where he was responsible for
various operations in Asia Pacific and globally. His experience
also includes management positions with Telstra Corp. Ltd., a
telecommunications company, and Acer Inc. Weisler also has
significant public company board experience. This includes serving
on the HP Inc. board from 2015 to May 2020. He currently serves as
a director on the boards of Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. and
BHP.
“Having admired Intel for more than three decades as the company
that fueled compute as we know it, I’m honored and excited to join
them as they transform to capitalize on new markets fueled by the
incredible growth of data and intelligence. Their rich
entrepreneurial culture, unique innovation and scale positions
Intel to drive a positive global impact for decades to come,”
Weisler said.
Intel’s company bylaws designate a range of nine to 15 board
members. With this addition, there are currently 10 members on the
board. Since 2018, Intel has added four independent directors, half
of whom are women, including one who is an underrepresented
minority.
“In the last two years, Intel has made significant changes to
its board of directors, having reduced the average tenure, added
critical skills and increased board diversity,” Ishrak said. “While
we view this as positive progress, we are not satisfied. Consistent
with Intel’s values, we expect to continue adding additional
directors with a specific focus on increasing the representation of
racially and ethnically diverse board members.”
