Ed Doller Board’s Director, Nantero

Nantero, Inc. appointed Ed Doller to its board of directors.

As a recognized leader in the field of new memory, he brings more than 30 years experience in advanced semiconductor memories, including senior management positions at both Intel and Micron.

He has been a member of Nantero’s advisory board since 2015, during which time the company secured many new customers, added new strategic investors such as Dell Technologies Capital and Cisco Investments, and saw Fujitsu’s announcement of near-term NRAM volume production.

“Ed’s extensive industry experience is invaluable to Nantero,” said Greg Schmergel, co-founder and CEO, Nantero. “As we work with multiple customers on a range of different products for different market segments, his deep understanding of the customer and application landscape will be critical.”  

Added Doller: “Nantero’s NRAM has a unique balance of better-than-DRAM price/bit, DRAM-like performance, and nonvolatility, which no other technology offers in one package. This makes NRAM exciting for a range of markets from enterprise systems to mobile devices, not to mention upcoming applications such as AI, and I am excited to be part of the team bringing this technology to market.”
