Shareholders³ will be able to vote on his selection at the company's annual meeting on 18 March.

 

Aged⁴ 37, Mr Dorsey would become the youngest member of Disney's board, the majority of whom are in their 50s.

 

Over the last few years he has been running Square, a company which offers credit card payments service for small businesses.

 

"Jack Dorsey is a talented entrepreneur who has helped create groundbreaking new businesses in the social media and commerce spaces," said Robert Iger, Disney's chairman and chief executive.

 

"The perspective he brings to Disney and its board is extremely valuable."
