TalkTalk has lost its general manager responsible for "ultrafast broadband" to rival Virgin Media. We’re expecting TalkTalk to announce further details of their new FTTP company in the very near future. The company said it had appointed former Sky Broadband chief executive Mike Wright as the new head of broadband in Ireland. TalkTalk is to invest £1.5bn ($2.1bn) to deploy fibre-to-the-home to three million UK premises, the new company created for the venture will be majority-owned by Infracapital, which will contribute £400m towards the project.
