Meta's top policy executive, Nick Clegg, is stepping down from his role as President-elect Donald Trump is set to take office. His replacement is Joel Kaplan, a prominent Republican within the company.
Clegg, the former UK deputy prime minister, joined the company in 2018 and was later promoted to president of global affairs in 2022. In a Facebook post, Clegg mentioned that the company, formerly known as Facebook, has evolved significantly since he joined, leading to his decision to move on from his role. He will support Kaplan's transition for a few months before leaving the company.
