Globe says Big Three note Wind appoints Krstajic CEO

The Globe and Mail reports in its Tuesday edition after years of fighting in court, Tony Lacavera and Alek Krstajic are coming together. The Globe's Christine Dobby writes that just over a year after Mr. Krstajic's Public Mobile was sold to Telus, they are going to challenge incumbent wireless carriers together. Wind Mobile said Monday Mr. Krstajic will take over as chief executive officer while founder Mr. Lacavera will become honorary chairman. Mr. Lacavera is stepping down from his role as chairman to make way for Robert MacLellan, who has more governance experience. Mr. Krstajic and Mr. Lacavera originally squared off as founders of two of the three wireless start-ups launched after a 2008 spectrum auction that included set-aside airwaves for new entrants. During an interview Monday at Wind's headquarters in Toronto, the two men spoke fondly of their time as adversaries, noting they had held several discussions about merging Wind and Public Mobile in the past. "I think there was a perception that we were competitors but really, I never saw it that way," Mr. Krstajic said. Mr. Krstajic was president of BCE's wireless division in 2005 and previously a senior vice-president at Rogers.
