  "summary": "Snap’s Chief Business Officer Ajit Mohan has announced his departure from the company after nearly four years, citing personal considerations as the primary reason for his decision. Mohan, who joined Snap in January 2023 as President of Asia Pacific, helped rebuild the company’s global advertising business during his tenure. His responsibilities included leading Snap’s advertising sales and go-to-market operations, focusing on rebuilding the advertising platform around performance, making direct-response advertising a central part of the business, and delivering measurable outcomes for advertisers. India emerged as an important growth market for Snapchat during his time at the company, with the platform crossing 250 million monthly active users in the country. Snap’s revenue grew 19% year on year in the second quarter of 2026, with its global user base approaching one billion. Ronan Harris, previously President of Europe, the Middle East and Africa, has been appointed as Chief Commercial Officer, reporting directly to Snap’s co-founder and CEO, Evan Spiegel.",
