Twitter Vice President Japan and Asia Pacific Yu Sasamoto shared the development in a tweet.
“Thank you to @manishm for your leadership of our Indian business over the past 2+ years. Congrats on your new US-based role in charge of revenue strategy and operations for new markets worldwide. Excited to see you lead this important growth opportunity for Twitter,” Sasamoto tweeted.
