The newly established commercial organization, led by Bhatia, will more closely align Lenovo’s differentiated full-stack AI offerings and commercial capabilities across business groups, teams, and markets to deliver Hybrid AI solutions to commercial customers.
The appointment follows the announcement of the planned retirement of Ivan Cheung, Vice President and General Manager of Lenovo’s PCs & Smart Devices (PCSD) and Chief Operating Officer in Asia Pacific, in June 2026. Cheung has made significant contributions to Lenovo’s growth and device business success in the region over the years.
Benjamin Yeh succeeded Cheung as Vice President and General Manager of PCSD for Lenovo‘s Asia Pacific region in March 2026. He brings over two decades of industry experience and deep business management expertise to lead Lenovo’s PCSD business in Asia Pacific through its next phase of growth.
