Michael Stone

Chief Executive Officer

"It is great to be part of a company at the forefront of new industry business models and I am positioning Amethon towards sustained growth and market leadership whilst delivering shareholder value."

Michael joins the Amethon team from Ericsson where he was involved in mobile telecommunications sales and marketing since the early days of GSM. In this time, he has been part of an industry evolution from simple voice through SMS, WAP, GPRS and now 3G.

As part of Ericsson's 3G marketing team in the late 90's he was instrumental in conveying the 3G vision being realised today to both the mobile operator community and the broader IT&T industry. This led to a critical involvement in Ericsson's successful bid for Hutchison Australia's 3G network business followed by a Sales Management role in the Vodafone account team. His most recent responsibility was as General Manager for Ericsson's Advise Services where he managed the consulting, design and education business areas.

Michael holds a Bachelor of Engineering from the University of Canberra and an MBA from RMIT University.
