Board Member Resignation Leaves Apple and Google Un-entwined
Posted on 13. Oct, 2009 by admin in Computers
While the U.S Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is busy probing “the Google/Apple interlocking directorates issue” the two companies are trying their best to placate the trade regulator.
A couple of months after Google CEO Eric Schmidt resigned from Apple’s board of directors, the last surviving link between the boards of the two companies has also snapped with Genentech chairman Arthur D. Levinson resigning from Google’s board. But he will continue to remain on Apple’s board of directors.
“Art has been a key part of Google’s success these past five years, offering unvarnished advice and vital counsel on every big issue and opportunity Google has faced,” Schmidt said, hailing Levinson’s contribution.
