The Herd: New hires and promotions for 5.19.10

The company that purchased Qimonda’s sprawling plant in Eastern Henrico has hired a chief technology officer to come to Richmond. Plus new hires in IT, accounting and HR, and a board appointment for a local venture capitalist.

Big plans for vacant plant

Qimonda’s shuttered plant in Eastern Henrico will soon be humming again, only this time with data servers storing files from government and private sector clients. The new owner plans on investing between $75 million and $105 million over the next four years. Bids for construction could be going out in the third quarter.
