January 29, 2025 - 07:22
Sony Group Corp. has announced the appointment of Hiroki Totoki as its new chief executive officer, effective April 1. Totoki, who has served as the company's finance chief for several years, brings a wealth of experience to the role. His promotion marks a significant leadership change as the company seeks to navigate the evolving landscape of the entertainment and technology sectors.
Current CEO Kenichiro Yoshida, who has held the position since 2018, will transition to the role of chairman. Under Yoshida's leadership, Sony has made notable strides in various areas, including gaming, music, and film. However, the company is now looking to Totoki to steer its future growth and innovation.
Totoki's financial acumen and strategic insight are expected to play a crucial role in addressing the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for Sony. As the company prepares for this leadership transition, stakeholders are keenly watching how Totoki will shape Sony's vision and direction in the coming years.
