Cornelis is unique in having the products, roadmap, and talent to help customers address this issue. I look forward to joining the team to bring their innovations to even more organizations around the globe.”
Spelman arrives at Cornelis from Intel, where she most recently served as Corporate Vice President in the Data Center & AI Group and General Manager of Xeon Products and Solutions. She played a pivotal role in enhancing Xeon’s capabilities to accelerate AI workloads, positioning CPUs as a leading inference engine in the industry. Her extensive career at Intel included leadership roles in infrastructure operations and engineering, finance, data center product and brand marketing, and sales.
“Lisa brings unparalleled breadth and depth of expertise in every aspect of building and scaling a successful business,” said Murphy. “She is already well known and trusted by our customers for her ability to help them develop the next generation infrastructure they need, which will be invaluable as we look to expand deeper into the enterprise and cloud AI markets. I look forward to partnering with her and the rest of the Cornelis leadership team as we prepare for our next phase of growth.”
