Going Out On Top

摘要

Romain Bausch is retiring from his post as chief executive of satellite fleet operator SES after 19 years that saw the company transform itself from a niche provider in Europe into the world's second-largest operator by revenue. It is probably fitting that in 2014 Luxembourg-based SES will surpass rival Intelsat in revenue for the first time. It is also fitting that Bausch's successor, Karim Michel Sabbagh, was selected in part for his experience in emerging markets at the former Booz & Co.'s Dubai office.
