Geoff Horth will become CEO of the merged M2 Group and Vocus Communications, which will rank as the fourth-biggest telco in Australia and the third-largest in New Zealand. Horth is currently CEO of M2, whose board has endorsed the $A3bn merger proposal. M2 owns the Dodo and iPrimus brands, which may allow Vocus to revive its plan to build its own fibre-to-basement service for apartment buildings. The merger is subject to approval by the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission.
