William Brown joined Harris from United Technologies where he was responsible for the company’s global strategic planning and M&A activity.
He’s a deal-maker who has not wasted any time divesting of “non-core” assets, starting with the Harris Cyber Integrated Solutions business, and now Harris broadcast.
Now that Brown has set up Harris to be more focused on its core defense business, one has to wonder whether he will continue to run the Harris as a defense company, or try to engineer a larger deal that would see Harris Corporation itself sold to a larger defense contractor.
