Directors and officers of IQE PLC
The Director of IQE PLC currently on record is Ellen Chesney; eight of the 35 officer records shown for IQE PLC are current appointments, filed with Companies House. The remaining 27 records shown (Filbuk Nominees Limited, Michael Scott and 24 others) are former appointments that have since been resigned.

The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.

Data availability
Those 8 subsidiaries span United Kingdom, United States, Taiwan jurisdictions, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear. Three of the 8 go a level deeper still, with their own further subsidiaries recorded beneath them — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
