Samsung reshuffles its leadership, TM Roh gets even more important

Today, Samsung Electronics named TM Roh as head of its Device eXperience (DX) Division and appointed him as CEO. He won't be the only CEO, however - he's joining Young Hyun Jun, Vice Chairman and Head of the Device Solutions (DS) Division, as co-CEO. Roh will continue to oversee the company's mobile business as head of the Mobile eXperience (MX) business, while Vice Chairman Jun will remain head of the Memory business.

So it looks like Roh is expanding his managerial roles, which means Samsung must be happy with how he's led the mobile business in the past few years, since he's basically now given even more areas to oversee.

Samsung has also named Janghyun Yoon as President, CTO of the DX Division and head of Samsung Research, and Hongkun Park as head of the Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology. Yoon was previously the CEO of Samsung Venture Investment, and prior to that he was responsible for software platforms and IoT and Tizen development in the MX business. Park is currently a professor at Harvard University and "a renowned researcher in the fields of nanoscience, quantum science and engineering".
