“We are glad to continue the collaboration with Jens Schulte-Bockum,” said Philipp Humm, chairman of the supervisory board. He added that the CEO managed to strategically reposition Vodafone Deutschland in a strong competition environment and inaugurated a new era in the German telecommunications and TV market with the recently commenced integration of the country’s largest cable operator Kabel Deutschland.
