Prime Minister Keir Starmer has appointed Poppy Gustafsson, the former CEO of cyber-security firm Darktrace, as the UK's new investment minister. This appointment comes just days ahead of a major business summit in London. The position had been vacant for some time, and Gustafsson's appointment is seen as a strategic move to bolster the government's business and investment initiatives. Additionally, Gustafsson will receive a peerage as part of her new role.
