Telecoms trade association GSMA director general Anne Bouverot is to step down at the end of July.
She will become the chair and CEO of French security and identity solution vendor Morpho, a division of aeronautics and security group Safran.
GSMA chairman Jon Fredrik Baksaas, also president and CEO of Norwegian incumbent Telenor, said that during her four years at the GSMA, Bouverot had “made a significant impact… building a stronger organisation focused on our industry’s priorities and advocating effectively on behalf of mobile operators across the globe”.
Bouverot said: “Mobile is undeniably the most dynamic and rapidly evolving sector in technology today, creating significant opportunities for mobile operators and providing important socio-economic benefits for consumers and businesses around the world. I am very proud of the progress that the GSMA has made in aligning with our members around key industry initiatives, driving forward important advocacy programmes and convening the broad mobile communications ecosystem at leading events such as Mobile World Congress.”
Prior to joining the GSMA, Bouverot had held top management roles at Orange and Equant.
The GSMA said it had commenced a recruitment process to replace Bouverot.
