Microsoft Israel Appoints New R&D Center Chief
Microsoft announced the appointment of Ohad Yassin as the new CEO of its Research and Development center in Israel. Yassin will succeed Michal Brverman-Blumenthal, who is departing the company after 13 years, including six and a half years as the head of the R&D center.
Yassin is set to assume his new role at the beginning of November. This leadership change follows another recent appointment at Microsoft Israel, where Nati Amsterdam was named CEO to lead the company's sales and marketing operations in the country. Amsterdam's tenure begins in October.
These appointments signal a significant shift in Microsoft's Israeli leadership, with new figures taking the helm of both the R&D division and the broader sales and marketing operations.
