Nikesh Arora, right after quitting SoftBank, spent all his time replying to Tweets, fending off the curious media
READ ALSO: As Nikesh Arora quits, SoftBank will continue its focus on Indian startups
The (now) Former SoftBank President Arora, who has largely been seen as the key reason behind the Japanese Bank’s huge investments into India startups, is actually replying to everyone who is asking him about his next move on Twitter. He is being witty enough to fend off popular business channels that tweeted to him seeking a quick reaction on television.
Arora, who joined SoftBank two years back, said he did not want to be a CEO in waiting past his sell date. However, he will remain an advisor to SoftBank for a year, as a means of transition.
Arora is clearly having the time of his life, answering questions on SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son, the song he is humming right now, also if he’s been offered the position of RBI’s next chief. It is raining resignations, indeed.
I am not sad. I learnt a lot, sitting with Masa at dinner and chatting about life in the future. https://t.co/6TW1k6d6Nh
