The co-founders of Google, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, have announced they are stepping down from their respective CEO and president roles of parent company Alphabet – and handing over to Google's current CEO Sundar Pichai.
“We’ve never been ones to hold on to management roles when we think there’s a better way to run the company,” the two said in a blog post on Tuesday, adding that they will still be involved in the monster tech company they founded back in 1998 as board members and shareholders.
