NEWS: PR EUROPE; IVREA: Rolando to head Olivetti’s PR

Olivetti, the IT and telecommunications giant, has appointed Stefano Rolando as its new communications chief. Rolando, who was previously chief of information at the Prime Minister’s office in Rome, took up the post of executive vice president of external relations last month, with responsibility for Olivetti’s public relations. His appointment fills a five month gap after Vittorio Moccagatta quit the company to set up his own PR consultancy.
