Enovix Corporation (“Enovix”) (Nasdaq: ENVX), a global leader in
high-performance batteries, today announced the appointment of Dr.
Hongwei Yan as Chief Technology Officer (CTO), reporting directly

with the CEO and the leadership team to drive technology
development, customer qualification and the 2025 scale up of the
company’s Malaysia high-volume manufacturing plant.
“This hire is a big win for us,” said T.J.
Rodgers, Enovix Chairman. “We all know that Korea and China lead
the world in lithium-ion batteries. Now, we have a top scientist
who has worked at both Korea’s No. 1 battery company, Samsung SDI,
and China’s No. 1 battery company, Amperex Technology Limited (ATL)
where he led over 30 battery qualifications with a 100% success
rate for a Tier 1 US mobile customer. He brings us deep technical
relationships with the battery experts at our top customers, an
in-depth understanding of their qualification processes, and a
successful track record in working with them to scale their
production.”
Enovix CEO Dr. Raj Talluri added, “I personally
run our commercialization effort, and I’m thrilled to welcome
Hongwei, an experienced technical expert, to my staff. Hongwei’s
extensive technical background in lithium-ion battery technology –
demonstrated by his 8 patents and 21 peer-reviewed publications,
and hands-on Tier 1 qualification experience at smartphone OEMs –
will greatly strengthen our commercialization effort.”
Dr. Yan said, “I am excited to join Enovix and
contribute to the company’s mission. Based on my experience at ATL
and Samsung, I know there is significant demand among Tier 1
smartphone OEMs for a high energy density battery that meets cycle
life and charge time requirements. Enovix’s innovative architecture
is the only one to enable 100% active silicon anode technology,
making it an ideal solution for this market. My interactions with
the Enovix team show it has the capabilities to drive successful
qualification and manufacturing to scale. I look forward to being
part of this team.”
