- Instacart on Wednesday announced the replacement for CEO Fidji Simo, who helped bring the delivery company to a successful IPO in 2023. Simo will be succeeded by Chris Rogers, who previously served as a managing director for Apple Canada, where he helped bring iPhone adoption to market.
Earlier this month, OpenAI announced it had hired Instacart CEO Fidji Simo to be its first CEO of Applications, a role Sam Altman carved out for her, overseeing product offerings and business operations. Although it was expected Simo would remain at the delivery company for “a few months” while the board found her successor, Instacart announced Wednesday it had already found her replacement: Chris Rogers.
