Satyam Computer Services Ltd has recruited the executive management team of The Publishing Practice Ltd (TPP), a specialist UK consultancy in the media and entertainment industry, to spearhead a new consulting group for its global media and entertainment practice.

The move will enable Satyam to combine TPP's knowledge and understanding of the publishing business with the technical breadth and scale of Satyam's services.

The TPP's consultancy group including Mike Abell, Sharon Duckworth and Stephen Ryden-Lloyd will join Satyam's global media and entertainment practice to provide strategic consulting services for the publishing, online, broadcast, music and related industries.

The senior Vice-President of Satyam's global media and entertainment practice, Mr Kevin English, in a statement said, "The addition of new team will provide a competitive advantage in media and entertainment business — in Europe and in the US."

The consultancy services will complement Satyam's existing application delivery-based services to include new digital and online consulting. Satyam and TPP work together since 2005.
