Welcoming David Li to the TalentCraft Advisory Board
August 17, 2026
Founding member · Semiconductor & Advanced Manufacturing
President and CEO, Ingevity Corporation (NYSE: NGVT)
We’re pleased to welcome David Li as the founding member for Semiconductor & Advanced Manufacturing on the TalentCraft Advisory Board.
David has built and led organizations across advanced materials, global operations, and semiconductor manufacturing. He joined CMC Materials in 1998, spent seven years building its Asia-Pacific organization, and later served seven years as president and CEO through its 2022 acquisition by Entegris. He is now president and CEO of Ingevity.
His experience comes at an important moment for the semiconductor industry. As TSMC, Samsung Semiconductor, and SK hynix expand their U.S. footprints, success will require the people, leadership systems, and operating cultures that turn investment into durable capability.
We’re excited to have David’s perspective on TalentCraft’s Advisory Board.
Advisory board members serve in a personal capacity. Their views are their own and do not necessarily reflect those of their employers, and their participation does not imply their employers’ endorsement.
