Sony’s wide-ranging corporate reorganisation has thrown up another surprise – chairman and CEO Howard Stringer is now taking on the role of president too, with current Sony president Ryoji Chubachi stepping back to vice chairman from 1 April. The company’s consumer electronics arm is also restructuring into two groups. The Networked Products & Services Group will handle gaming and PC (i.e. PlayStation/PSP and Vaios), while the Consumer Products Group will handle TV, digital cameras and camcorders (i.e. everything else).
