X CEO Linda Yaccarino has become an ex-X CEO. She is stepping down after two years at the helm of Elon Musk's social media site, formerly known as Twitter, which he purchased in October 2022. Musk hired Yaccarino in June 2023 to run Twitter and rebranded it as X the following month.
In her departure announcement, Yaccarino thanked Musk for the opportunity and touted her accomplishments.
"X is truly a digital town square for all voices and the world's most powerful culture signal," wrote Yaccarino. "We couldn't have achieved that without the support of our users, business partners, and the most innovative team in the world."
