Up Close with Arthur Tan, retired CEO IMI Part One

This thoughtful conversation between EMSNOW and recently retired CEO of IMI Arthur Tan covers our guest's views about the past, present and future of the EMS industry since he began his time at IMI in 2001. His vision for this Philippines-based EMS brought the company from a small regional manufacturer serving Japanese OEMs to the global powerhouse it is today. The discussion covers some of the key early transactions that began the growth; what he sees as the top milestones of his career, which focus around the benefits to society and his employees; and much more. This must see interview with an industry icon is in two parts. The second part will post tomorrow.
