CREATION: David Mok steps aside as Lemon appoints new CEO

Internet services company Lemon has appointed Neil Runcieman its new chief executive officer. He takes over from company founder David Mok, who stays on as Lemon's chairman. Mr Runcieman's appointment comes five months after Lemon received USdollars 10 million of additional capital to fund a broadening of its service portfolio and the development of a pan-Asian presence. "Neil Runcieman has been given the task of driving Lemon Asia's next phase of development," said Mr Mok. "After more than five years of steering the company to this point, I'm ready to let someone else do the driving so I can put more focus on creative and strategic work. "I think we're very fortunate to have found someone of Neil's versatility and diverse talents to do the job of taking the company to the next level while still maintaining the company's impressive track record of identifying and implementing Internet solutions." With over 20 years experience in management and communications, Mr Runcieman has a solid record in growing regional businesses in Asia. "He comes to Lemon with a comprehensive skill-set that encompasses general management, strategic communications and marketing in multicultural corporate environments, as well as successful entrepreneurial experience." Previously, he worked for the Jardine Schindler Group as group communications and marketing director for almost two years and as deputy managing director of Schindler Lifts (Hong Kong) for a further two years. Before coming to Asia, Mr Runcieman spent eight years in Europe, where he held corporate communication positions with the European Satellite Telecommunications Organisation and the Schindler Group.
