A graduate of Stanford University, Neal Mohan is one of the big names in the tech world. The YouTube CEO began his career in 1994 as a Senior Analyst at Andersen Consulting (now Accenture). He moved to NetGravity in 1997. The startup was later acquired by DoubleClick.
At DoubleClick, Neal Mohan eventually became Vice President of Business Operations. In 2007, Google acquired the firm for $3.1 billion, and Mohan moved to a leadership position in the company. He was one of the big names in Google’s product development strategy by 2011, which is the reason Twitter wanted to hire him.
The $100 million counteroffer proved to be a gambit that paid off in their favour. Neal Mohan remained with the company and his contributions were pivotal for the development of YouTube. In 2015, Mohan was picked to be the Chief Product Officer of YouTube. In 2023, he was appointed the CEO of the video sharing platform.
Mohan is also an Advisory Council Member at Stanford University’s Graduate School of Business as well as a member of the Council of Foreign Relations.
