It’s official now: the co-founder of Google, Larry Page, became the CEO of the Internet Group, replacing Eric Schmidt.
Eric Schmidt is no longer the CEO of Google and Larry Page, co-founder of the firm in Mountain View, takes this role and therefore the reins of his company. The circle is complete.
Eric Schmidt joined Google in 2001 and has resigned because of the new strategic direction taken by the Google Group. However, he retains the chairmanship of the board of directors. This system eventually led to operational difficulties at a time when Google has become a huge machine to manage, with 25,000 employees and a market capitalization of about $ 200 billion.
Larry Page, through the role as CEO, will take charge of Google’s technology strategy and product development. But Eric Schmidt is not the only one to disappear. Another key element of Google, Jonathan Roserberg, product manager and vice president of the Mountain View Company, has announced his resignation.
Jonathan Rosenberg joined Google in 2002 and his tasks was to control the development of all product groups in the Internet, like Google Docs, Gmail or Google Apps. His departure, scheduled for June would be linked to the arrival of Larry Page at the helm of the company.
