Samsung senior adviser Young Sohn to rejoin Arm's board

(Reuters) - British chip firm Arm Holdings said on Thursday that Young Sohn, a senior adviser at Samsung Electronics, will rejoin its board.

Having previously served on Arm's board, Sohn said that his history with the company has "provided unique perspective into how critical Arm technology is to the world that relies on it."

"The depth of experience that Young brings will be invaluable to Arm as we continue to diversify our business and work to address the very real and complex computing challenges in the age of AI," said Arm's CEO Rene Haas.

Sohn is the chairman of audio electronics maker Harman's board, which Samsung bought for $8 billion in 2017. He is also on the board of Cadence Design Systems.
