Meta Welcomes Broadcom CEO Hock Tan and Philanthropist John Arnold to Board

Meta announced the appointment of Broadcom CEO Hock Tan and philanthropist John Arnold to its board. Tan’s extensive experience in semiconductor technology and Arnold’s background in energy infrastructure align with Meta’s focus on advancing artificial intelligence and building the metaverse. CEO Mark Zuckerberg highlighted the importance of their technical knowledge as Meta pursues its long-term vision. Their additions contrast with the recent departure of former Meta operating chief Sheryl Sandberg. Tan expressed enthusiasm for Meta’s role in computing’s future, while Arnold brings experience from Arnold Ventures philanthropy and his tenure at Enron. They join a distinguished board including Peggy Alford, Marc Andreessen, Drew Houston, Robert M. Kimmitt, and Tony Xu.
