While the uncertainty around the Euro currency and economic instability have had a big impact on sales over recent years, Mr. Tamagawa?s unique expertise, drive and dedication to frontline sales and marketing operations will help us overcome the current challenging business environment, and put Sony Europe firmly on the path to the future growth.?

?At the same time, Mr. Nishida?s considerable leadership and experience will ensure successful completion of the many vital transformation measures he introduced, as well as a seamless management transition,? said Mr Hirai.
