May 12, 2023

The famous American billionaire added that the new leader will mainly focus on business operations, while Musk himself will focus on designing new products and technologies for the company.

Musk said he looked forward to working with Iaccarino to turn the popular social platform into an “X app for everything.”

Elon Musk announced on Thursday that he had found a new CEO for the social media platform and would begin work in about six weeks.

He added in a tweet, “My role will transition to Executive Chairman and Chief Technology Officer, overseeing products, software and computers,” but did not mention the nominee yesterday.

In December, users of the site backed Musk’s resignation from Twitter’s chairmanship, according to the results of a Musk-led investigation, and he pledged to abide by its results.
