Informa CEO Stephen Carter to join the Vodafone board

Stephen Carter (pictured), the head of business information giant Informa, will become a non-executive director of UK telco group Vodafone in a few weeks.
The appointment, which will come into effect after the company’s AGM on 26 July, is subject to shareholder approval but that seems like a formality. On paper Carter is such a natural fit for Vodafone that the most surprising part of this move is that it didn’t happen. Full disclosure – Telecoms.com is owned by Informa.
