In a surprising move, Google CEO Larry Page said that Andy Rubin, founder of Android and Google's Android chief, has decided it was "time to hand over the reins and start a new chapter at Google." Sundar Pichai will lead Android as well as Chrome.

Sundar Pichai will lead Android, in addition to his existing work with Chrome and Apps. Sundar has a talent for creating products that are technically excellent yet easy to use—and he loves a big bet. Take Chrome, for example. In 2008, people asked whether the world really needed another browser. Today Chrome has hundreds of millions of happy users and is growing fast thanks to its speed, simplicity and security. So while Andy’s a really hard act to follow, I know Sundar will do a tremendous job doubling down on Android as we work to push the ecosystem forward.

Sundar Pichai
(born 1972) is an Indian American computer engineer. He is the Senior Vice President of Chrome, Google Apps and Android at Google Inc.[SUP][1][/SUP]. Pichai was brought up in Tamil Nadu, India. He received a B.Tech from the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur and was awarded an Institute Silver Medal.[SUP][2][/SUP] He holds an M.S. from Stanford University and an MBA from the Wharton School, where he was named a Siebel Scholar[SUP][3][/SUP] and a Palmer Scholar.
