Jon von Tetzchner leaving Opera Software

It’s actually sad to hear that Opera co-founder and current Advisor Jon von Tetzchner is leaving the company . I had the pleasure meeting Jon in 2009 and he’s a pretty knowledgeable guy and a pioneer in the internet space .He was in India recently for a Opera Meetup. He seems pretty tight lipped about this future plans, but we wish him luck !. Opera Software is the company behind Opera Mini and Mobile.
Oslo, Norway – 24 June, 2011 – The Board of Opera Software and Jon S. von Tetzchner today together announce that von Tetzchner is leaving Opera Software. Von Tetzchner co-founded Opera Software in 1995, and led the company up to 2010.
“It is of course a choice that brings up a lot of emotions”, says von Tetzchner. “When we first started out, we were a few guys in a really small office – now we are spread all over the world, have over 740 employees and over 200 million users. I am very proud of what we have accomplished, and look forward to following the company closely also in the future.”
“We have had a lot of fun during these years, and to say that Jon has created a great company is an understatement”, says Lars Boilesen, CEO of Opera Software. “He has taught me and everyone working here a lot. He believed in, and pushed out innovation after innovation that we see our competitors constantly struggling with copying, making Opera a first mover in the technological development of web browsers as we know them today. We are very proud of Jon, and of course of the company”, says Boilesen. “We are aiming at 500 million users by 2013, and we have a very positive flow right now.
Von Tetzchner will be with Opera Software until 30th of June and has ideas about new projects, but is not ready to reveal any of his ideas as of right now.
