Megabyte Ltd, based in the Technopark in Mosta, has appointed Rainer van Beckum as its new CEO with immediate effect. Mr van Beckum has taken over this role from John Ambrogio who is relinquishing the post having reached the company's official retirement age.

After 11 years at the helm, Mr Ambrogio, has "passed on the baton" to Mr van Beckum but will continue working with Megabyte to assist the new CEO in the early months of his tenure to ensure a professional handover and continuity in all operational and commercial matters.

Mr Beckum joined Megabyte last September as the designated successor to Mr. Ambrogio. He has had a wide and varied career in IT.

After obtaining his Master's degree he started his career as a software programmer. Later, he took on a role in project management where he was responsible for development and worldwide implementation of complex IT systems. As line manager, he worked for Germany's biggest IT service provider and for seven years he was CEO of the IT branch of RWE, a major utility company in Germany. Mr. van Beckum has lived in Malta since January last year.
