Synopsys Appoints Insider Sassine Ghazi to CEO Position – C-Suite Transitions

A couple of weeks ago we covered an unusual situation related to a CEO transition in an article titled ‘RB Global Experiences Simultaneous Departures of CEO and CFO – C-Suite Transitions‘. We wrote the following about the departures of the CEO and CFO of RB Global (RBA):

In a twist of events, on August 21, 2023, Ann Fandozzi, the former CEO of RB Global, expressed her disagreement in a letter to RB shareholders that she did not submit her resignation from the company.

This development aligns with a report from the Wall Street Journal, revealing concerns from major RB Global shareholders, such as Independent Franchise Partners and Beutel, Goodman & Co, over Fandozzi’s sudden exit from the vehicle marketplace company.

The transition we discuss this week has none of the drama from the RBA situation but involves the transition of Founder/CEO with a very long and successful track record in the semiconductor industry.

Welcome to edition 55 of C-Suite Transitions, a weekly series on InsideArbitrage that tracks appointments and departures at publicly traded companies during the prior week. We highlight five appointments and departures each week by picking the largest companies from the full list of management changes.
