Opportunity. It’s a recurring theme for President and CEO Cristiano Amon (Qualcomm Incorporated) — not only for how he envisions Qualcomm’s present and future but the way he approaches his role as the company’s leader.

 

That’s, in part, because our industry-leading roadmap of technologies is relevant to every industry that is undergoing digital transformation. And that’s allowed the company to successfully execute on its diversification strategy.

“Amon’s message to investors is that the company’s $100bn total available market will grow seven times this decade as Qualcomm diversifies.”

Recently, Cristiano sat down with Patrick McGee of the Financial Times to discuss Qualcomm’s vision and strategy for becoming the leader of the connected intelligent edge. The two also discussed his “deft handling of the supply chain crisis,” empowering automakers with the Snapdragon Digital Chassis, his leadership style, tech rivalries, and more.
