Isola Names New CFO

CHANDLER, Ariz., August 15, 2016 — Isola, a market leader in copper-clad laminates and dielectric prepreg materials used to fabricate advanced multilayer Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), announced that it has appointed Ken Rizvi as Chief Financial Officer, effective immediately. Rizvi succeeds Interim CFO Donald Colvin, who will continue to serve on Isola’s board of directors, a position he has held since 2010.

Jeff Waters, Isola’s CEO said, “We look forward to Ken joining Isola at this exciting time in the company’s operational and financial transformation. His industry background and previous senior leadership roles in the technology industry make him distinctly qualified to serve as our Chief Financial Officer.”

Rizvi joins Isola from Micron, where he served as vice president of finance and corporate treasurer. Prior to Micron, Rizvi was treasurer and vice president of finance at ON Semiconductor. He also served as an associate with Technology Crossover Ventures, a leading private equity and venture capital firm focused on growth technology companies, and as an investment banker at Morgan Stanley in New York City and Menlo Park, California.

Rizvi holds an MBA from the W.P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University and a Bachelor of Science degree in Economics from Yale University.
