John Lily New Mozilla Corp CEO

On the first ‘work” day of the New Year John Lily has been appointed as new CEO for Mozilla Corp. succeeding Mitchell Baker. Mitchell however will remain as Mozilla Corporation and Mozilla Foundation’s Chairman. Mitchel Baker explains:

“In reality John and I have been unconsciously moving towards this change for some time, as John has been providing more and more organizational leadership. It is very Mozilla-like to acknowledge the scope of someone’s role after he or she has been doing it for a while, and this is a good part of what is happening here. I expect this transition to continue to be very smooth.”
