Anthony Rose leaves YouView

The man who revived the BBC's new media fortunes, Anthony Rose, is to step down as CTO of the YouView venture, formerly known as Project Canvas.

It's a surprise move. Rose is well respected throughout the industry and inspires great loyalty from his team. Rose joined the BBC from P2P company Kazaa and gave the bureaucratic organisation some much-needed private sector focus and pragmatism. Previously the Aussie was VP at Sega Australia.

In a statement, YouView said that Rose "would continue to inform development in an advisory capacity", but that YouView was "moving from the concept and design phase into the delivery phase".
