CEA-Leti Moves Fast on New CEO

PARIS , Nov. 28, 2017 – CEA-Leti, one of the largest micro- and nanotechnologies research institutes in Europe, lost its head recently, but recovered by naming Emmanuel Sabonnadiere as CEO, succeeding Marie-Noelle Semeria.

CEA-Leti has provided no explanation of Semeria's contract non-renewal. Late last month, CEA-Leti's CEO from 2014 to 2017, announced her decision to take a position as CTO of Total, a French multinational integrated oil and gas company.

Sabonnadiere joins Leti from CEA Tech, where he led the industrial-partnership program.
