Vodafone Group announced on Thursday that the CEO of Emirati company e&, Hatem Dowidar has joined the company’s board of directors.
Dowidar will remain in the board of directors as long as e& maintains its 14.6 percent stake. In case the stake exceeds 20 percent, the company will then nominate a different non-executive member of the board.
Vodafone’s chief executive Margherita Della Valle, said closer alignment with e& would benefit both companies and bring additional telecoms experience to Vodafone’s board.
