QinetiQ
QinetiQ is the "controversially" (Guardian) privatised British defence and security technology company. According to The Guardian:
- Qinetiq, part of what was the formerly state-owned Defence Evaluation and Research Agency, was floated earlier this year, making tens of millions of pounds for chairman Sir John Chisholm and chief executive Graham Love.
- The government had already sold 31% of the company to US venture capital company Carlyle for £42m. Carlyle later sold part of that stake for £160m.
Principals
- George Tene - non-executive director
