Yesterday's man gets plugged in
Article Abstract:
GEC is a large United Kingdom company that has a chance to benefit from an increase in world demand for high-tech telecoms equipment necessary for the net work. The company has made a number of acquisitions and disposals which have shifted its focus, and this includes a move away from defense. The company has initially considered disposing of some of its telecoms operations, but instead bought the stake in GPT held by Siemens in a JV. There are risks involved in the new strategy, though the change in direction has been rapid and decisive.
