In June, three board members will leave Sony at once. Among them is Chairman Kaz Hirai. He announced his imminent departure from the Japanese company where he worked for 35 years.
Kaz Hirai
Hirai is the former CEO of Sony.
He has held this position since 2012 and left it a year ago, handing it over to Kenichiro Yoshida. Hirai remained the chairman of the company, but now this is not for long. He will finally leave her on June 18.
However, according to Pocket Gamer, Hirai will sometimes help with advice from Sony’s top managers.
I have no doubt that everyone at Sony shares Yoshida's view of management and is ready to build an even brighter future for the company. So I decided to leave Sony, which has been a part of my life for the last 35 years. I want to express my sincere gratitude to all our employees and interested persons who supported me on this path.
Chairman of the Board of Directors of Sony
Director Osamu Nagayama (Osamu Nagayama) and Eiko Harada (Eikoh Harada) are leaving Sony together with Hirai. They also sit on the board of directors. The reason for their future resignation is not specified.
