AIAG Welcomes Micron Technology to Board of Directors
16 April 2024 - 11:30PM
The Automotive Industry Action Group (AIAG) today announced the
appointment of Micron Technology to its board of directors to
provide electric vehicle (EV) subject matter expertise and
guidance. Representing a cross-section of member companies, AIAG’s
board is comprised of executives from mobility OEM (Original
Equipment Manufacturer) and supplier organizations who provide
future direction for the association and oversee collaborative
efforts to enhance supply chain efficiency.
With over 30 years dedicated to advancing automotive memory and
storage solutions, Micron maintains strong relationships within the
automotive and mobility ecosystem. The steadfast collaboration with
its partners has positioned Micron as a key driver influencing the
shift from ICE (Internal Combustion Engines) to ACE (Autonomous,
Connected, and Electric) vehicles.
“Micron joining the AIAG Board of Directors was a logical step
to deepen our engagement with the mobility community and help
develop the collaborative standards, guidelines, and training that
advance the entire ACE supply chain,” said Bill Lechten, senior
director, Quality Management Office at Micron Technology.
“Semiconductor manufacturing, software, and the embedded systems
ecosystem all require a deep understanding of what requirements are
truly important for the supply chain. Memory and storage solutions
are fundamental to all mobility systems, and AIAG’s engagement with
Micron will bring critical expertise to the discussion.”
“As the AIAG Board of Directors continues to evolve along with
our organization and industry, we’re extremely pleased to welcome
Micron Technology and Bill Lechten to the team,” AIAG CEO Matt
Pohlman concluded. “Micron’s considerable expertise in the
semiconductor space will undoubtedly support a broader
understanding of semiconductor devices and systems within AIAG and
the mobility industry overall, facilitating the development of
common standards, training, events, and other key offerings that
benefit us all.”
