(USA) – Former Qualcomm executive joins Soraa to drive go-to-market activities.
Soraa, a specialist in GaN on GaN™ LED technology, has announced the appointment of marketing veteran Todd Antes to the role of Senior Vice President of Marketing. Antes will report directly to CEO Jeff Parker and work closely with the sales and product development teams.
“Todd brings extensive marketing experience to Soraa and will play a key role in driving the company’s next phase of growth into full spectrum, smart and connected lighting,” said Parker.
