CFO takes command
Taiwan-based GigaMedia Limited has announced the appointment of
Thomas Hui as President and Chief Operating Officer of the company
with immediate effect.
Hui has served as the Chief Financial Officer of Giga for the past
three years - and will continue to oversee the company's financial
functions in an interim capacity until the appointment of his replacement.
"Thomas is a multi-talented leader who has been instrumental
in the transformation and growth of GigaMedia," stated CEO
Arthur Wang. "As President, we are confident Thomas will drive
even greater growth in our online entertainment businesses."
Hui joined the company three years ago following a management career
at the global investment bank Goldman Sachs, where he was Executive
Director. At Goldman Sachs, Hui was responsible for a broad range
of mergers and acquisitions and financing transactions. Prior to
Goldman Sachs, he worked as an investment banker at Merrill Lynch
and as a management consultant at McKinsey & Company, both in
Hong Kong.
"The President and COO positions are newly created, strengthening
the senior management at GigaMedia, enabling us to further exploit
the enormous market opportunities before us," explained Wang.
GigaMedia acquired the Grand Virtual online gambling software group
some time ago, and owns up and coming online poker site
