The board of administrators at Twitter has a unique look, as Hugh Johnston and Martha Lane Fox are in, changing Peter Currie and Peter Chernin.

Twitter introduced the modifications to its board in a Form 8-K it filed with the Securities and Trade Fee final week, saying that they’ll take impact following its 2016 annual assembly.

The 2 new Twitter board members are:

• Johnston, vice chairman and chief monetary officer at PepsiCo, the place he has been since 1987 in quite a few roles.
• Web entrepreneur Lane Fox, whose résumé consists of founder and/or chairman roles at lastminute.com, Fortunate Voice, MakieLab and Doteveryone.

And the 2 departing members are:

• Currie, president of Currie Capital and former chief monetary officer of Netscape.
• Chernin, at present chairman and CEO of The Chernin Group and former president and chief working officer at News Corp.

In accordance with the New York Post, Twitter had tried so as to add some Hollywood to its board of administrators, talking with Mandalay Leisure chairman and CEO Peter Guber and tv producer Shonda Rhimes, however neither one panned out.
