Apprentice star Sir Alan Sugar has stepped down from his position as chairman of Amstrad.

 

The company that carried and made the name of the entrepreneurial businessman was acquired by BskyB last year and the departure from the operation will leave Sugar with time to concentrate on other interests, which include the educational PC specialist Viglen.

 

According to reports despite his age, a ripe old 61, Sugar has been quick to deny that the step down is a move into retirement.
