Mozilla announces leadership updates and next chapter

Wed, 19 Feb 2025 21:43:35 +0000

Description:
Mark Surman, president of the Mozilla Corporation , has announced leadership 
updates for Mozilla. This includes a Mozilla Leadership
Council made up of executives from each Mozilla organization, and new
board chairs for the not-for-profit Mozilla Foundation , the
Mozilla Corporation, and Mozilla.ai . The announcement also
indicates a desire to further " diversify " Mozilla's focus: We've recognized 
that Mozilla faces major headwinds in terms of both
financial growth and mission impact. While Firefox remains the core of
what we do, we also need to take steps to diversify: investing in
privacy-respecting advertising to grow new revenue in the near term;
developing trustworthy, open source AI to ensure technical and product
relevance in the mid term; and creating online fundraising campaigns
that will draw a bigger circle of supporters over the long
run. Mozilla's impact and survival depend on us simultaneously
strengthening Firefox AND finding new sources of revenue AND
manifesting our mission in fresh ways. That is why we're working hard
on all of these fronts.
