Intel Names VMWares Claire Dixon As CCO

Dixon (pictured) will oversee Intels global communications organization, including corporate communications and events, product public relations, employee communications and analyst relations. A once in a lifetime opportunity to lead external and internal communications for this extraordinary global brand and technology leader as it transforms its business, products and culture ready to write the next chapter of tech history, she wrote in a LinkedIn post. Dixon replaces Laura Anderson, who left Intel earlier this year after nearly two decades, and now leads communications for tech investment firm Silver Lake. She will report to sales and marketing group head Michelle Johnston Holthaus, who has been serving as interim CMO since Steve Fund left that role a year ago.
