Nick Clegg, Meta Platforms' (META) president of global affairs, said he would leave his role later this year, APA reports quoting RTT News.
Clegg will be succeeded by Joel Kaplan, who most recently served as the Clegg's deputy and has been appointed as Meta's chief global affairs officer.
"As a new year begins, I have come to the view that this is the right time for me to move on from my role as President, Global Affairs at Meta. It truly has been an adventure of a lifetime! I am proud of the work I have been able to do leading and supporting teams across the company to ensure innovation can go hand in hand with increased transparency and accountability, and with new forms of governance," Clegg wrote on X on Thursday.
"I hope I have played some role in seeking to bridge the very different worlds of tech and politics--worlds that will continue to interact in unpredictable ways across the globe," Clegg wrote.
His successor, Kaplan, is a prominent Republican who was White House Deputy Chief of Staff under George W. Bush.
