Internet is celebrating as Parag Agrawal, an IIT-Bombay alumnus is replacing Jack Dorsey, Twitter’s co-founder, as Twitter’s new CEO. After CEOs of Indian origin took over Google, Microsoft, Adobe, IBM among other majors, a new name has been added to the list. 

“With pride, we present to you Parag Agrawal, an IIT-Bombay alumnus and the current CEO of Twitter. Replacing Jack Dorsey, Twitter’s co-founder and former CEO, the Indian-American has added another Indian name to the list of global business leaders.” as stated by Times of India

The whole internet went bizarre when Jack tweeted a screenshot of his resignation email that he’d written to the company. In his email, he mentioned that he trusted Chief Technical Officer (CTO) Parag Agrawal and would help him with the transition.

In a tweet expressing his gratitude towards Jack and announcing his new post at the San Francisco-based company, Agrawal penned, “I am honoured and humbled. And I’m grateful for your continued mentorship and your friendship. I’m grateful for the service that you built, the culture, soul, and purpose you fostered among us, and for leading the company through really significant challenges.”

Parag Agrawal studied B.Tech in Computer Science and Engineering at IIT Bombay and completed his PhD from Stanford University.

No one could deny that definitely, it is a proud moment as more than half-dozen of global giants are led by India-born personalities. Netizens came forward to praise Aggarwal ad Indians, in general, to highlight how a new breed of CEOs belongs to India.

Google, Microsoft, Adobe, IBM, Palo Alto Networks, and now Twitter run by CEOs who grew up in India. Wonderful to watch the amazing success of Indians in the technology world and a good reminder of the opportunity America offers to immigrants. 🇮🇳🇺🇸 (Congrats, @paraga!)

Twitter’s Parag Agrawal joins the impressive list of Indian origin professional CEOs of global tech giants. But it would be a day when Indians figure prominently as founder CEOs, when they own the innovation space and build companies. We, as a nation, need to strive to get there.
