In the company’s news yesterday,

Mr. Chien has been a member of GigaMedia’s board for nearly two years. His appointment as chairman is effective immediately.

Mr. Hwang currently serves as chairman and CEO of Datadot Technology Asia & Taiwan, a world-leading provider of identification technologies. He is also chairman of Cita Investment and Technology Development Co. Ltd., which invests in real estate, equities, and business ventures across Asia, and is chairman and CEO of Cita Aircargo Service Co. Ltd., one of the largest perishables logistics providers in SE Asia. Mr. Hwang began his career here in 2000. Mr. Hwang holds a Master of Transport Management degree from the University of Sydney and a Bachelor of Construction Management degree from the University of New South Wales, Australia.
