Hans Werder will become the new government representative on the Swisscom Board of Directors effective April 2011. The Federal Council appointed the Secretary General of the Federal Department of the Environment, Transport, Energy, and Communications (UVEK) on Wednesday.
The 64-year-old will succeed Felix Rosenberg on the telecommunications company's Board of Directors, the Swiss Federal Office of Communications announced according to SDA. Rosenberg has been a member of the Board of Directors for the Swiss Confederation since Swisscom was founded.
