Warren East joins Dyson’s board
Former ARM chief Warren East has joined Dyson's board of directors.
"Dyson is a bit like ARM really," the 51-year-old told the Financial Times. "They're two UK companies that compete on a global scale representing British engineering and design – and being good at it."
East announced his retirement from ARM in March this year after twelve years at the helm. Since then, he has taken up non-executive roles at US memory manufacturer Micron and the TSB's Connected Digital Economy Catapult.
"Warren has very long sight lines where technology – particularly smart technology – is going in the future, and that's an area that's of interest to us," commented Dyson chief executive Max Conze.
