Arthur Hu, Lenovo

As Lenovo’s Global CIO, Art leads the enterprise-wide IT organization that provides information services, manages critical operational systems, and drives technology-enabled transformation for Lenovo. With his vision of IT as a strategic partner to the business, he has delivered capabilities that enabled Lenovo to grow from a PC-led company into a global technology solutions leader. 

The transformation includes building a global technology platform, powering Lenovo's fast-growing businesses, including eCommerce and gaming, as well as the new “as a Service” business models that offer customers increased choice and outcome-based delivery. 

In addition to his role as Global CIO, Art was appointed as Chief Technology and Delivery Officer (CTDO) of SSG in February 2023. As CTDO, Art leads a new organization that brings together the global IT, research and development, services support, and delivery functions to advance how Lenovo brings its innovative solutions to customers worldwide. 

In 2023, Art was named one of the CIOs to watch on the Forbes CIO Next List and has since guided his team to multiple CIO 100 Awards, which celebrate organizations and their IT teams for driving innovation, transformation, and business value through technology. His visionary leadership and strategic excellence have also earned him the CIO of the Year (AI Engineering) – Global 2025 award from C-Suite Insider, as well as the Outstanding CIO Award for 2024 at the Enterprise Intelligent Transformation Summit in Beijing.

Prior to Lenovo, Arthur was with McKinsey & Company, focused on strategy and technology management. He holds a Bachelor of Science and a Master of Science degree in computer science from Stanford University.
