For Immediate release
25-Year Telecom and Technology Veteran Brings Strong
Track Record for Driving Profitable Growth
Zurich, September 11, 2001. Carrier1 (Neuer Market: CJN; NASDAQ: CONE)
today announced that Mike McTighe, a 25-year veteran of the
telecommunications and technology sectors, has been named Chief Executive
Officer. McTighe will also join the Carrier1 Board of Directors.
McTighe, 47, has significant management and operations experience with a
range of leading communications companies in North America, Europe and Asia.
He was Chief Executive Officer, Global Operations, and a Director of Cable &
Wireless PLC, where he was most recently responsible for the development of
strategic partnerships, mergers, and acquisitions. Prior to joining Cable &
Wireless in 1999, McTighe served as President and Chief Executive Officer of
Philips Consumer Communications LLP, a joint venture between Philips
Electronics N.V. and Lucent Technologies. McTighe also previously worked in
a variety of senior level roles spanning all major geographies at both
Motorola and GE for five years and ten years respectively.
"Mike brings an exceptional track record of driving profitable growth at
leading global telecom companies as well as strong strategic and operational
expertise to Carrier1," said Victor Pelson, Chairman of Carrier1. "He is
the results-driven leader Carrier1 needs as we focus in on the key
revenue-generating products and customer groups that can drive improved
performance. We are pleased to welcome him to the Carrier1 team, and we
look forward to beginning the Company's next phase."
"Carrier1 has the fundamentals in place both to compete in the current
challenging environment and to win longer-term," said McTighe, who will join
Carrier1 on October 1, 2001. "Our first priority will be to align the cost
base of the business with today's market reality to establish a solid
platform for future profitable growth. This is a compelling opportunity,
and I look forward to working with Vic and the rest of the Carrier1 team to
drive the company forward and capitalize on today's significant market
opportunities to deliver value for investors."
Joining in May 1999, McTighe played a major leadership role in Cable &
Wireless's transformation into a business-to-business IP company through the
global consolidation of its wholly owned businesses in the U.S., U.K.,
Europe and Japan. During his tenure, the company became a leading global
competitor in the IP space, generating annual revenue of approximately £4
billion (US$6 billion). McTighe also led numerous successful partnerships,
mergers and acquisitions, including the recent acquisition of Digital
Island.
Previously, during his 3 ½-year tenure at Philips Electronics N.V., McTighe
served as President and CEO of Philips Consumer Communications L.P., where
he led the formation of a joint venture between Philips and Lucent focused
on accelerating the company's entry strategy into consumer telephony. Prior
to Philips, McTighe served as Director of Operations for Motorola in the
company's Asia/Pacific Cellular Subscriber Division. McTighe also worked
for ten years at General Electric, where he held various roles including
Manager of the company's Ultrasound & Nuclear Medicine Business. McTighe
also holds a number of non-executive directorships in a diverse portfolio of
companies. He earned a B.S. in Electrical/Electronic Engineering from
University College, London University.
