SINGAPORE – We’re pleased to announce that Benjamin Joe has been appointed as Meta‘s new Regional Vice President for Asia Pacific, taking over from Dan Neary, who will be leaving the company in a few months.
Ben is a 14-year Meta veteran and has played a significant role in Meta’s APAC leadership team for over 12 years.
