NEWS The board of Bull yesterday gave its approval to the appointment of Pierre Bonelli as CEO of the troubled French computer services giant. In an interview with the Financial Times the new chief executive said there was a job to be done to turn Bull around. Bull is 16 per cent owned by the French government, which forced out the previous CEO Guy de Panafieu, by making a grant of E100m (£63m) available dependent upon his departure. For related news see:
