Anna was promoted to Chief Operating Officer (COO) in 2021 after her successful time leading product strategy. In 2023, she also held the role of Deputy CEO, ensuring ongoing effective operations and stewardship of organizational priorities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During her tenure as Interim CEO, Anna articulated an innovative and sustainable future for CC. As CC continues to define its role within the emergence of generative artificial intelligence (AI), Anna is positioned to guide this exploration with an unwavering commitment to knowledge sharing within the broader commons. Cementing CC\u2019s role as the stewards of the legal infrastructure of the open web, in collaboration with the CC Global Network and community, is a key priority.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI am honored to formally step into the role of CEO, and bring my experience with and understanding of CC\u2019s global contributions, and ongoing need for sustainability and world-class operations, into this role,\u201d says Anna. \u201cI wish to thank the Board of Directors for their support during this transition period, as well as give my thanks to the CC team who are co-creating a shared vision of the future that I\u2019m excited to implement alongside them,\u201d continues Anna.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anna\u2019s appointment is effective immediately and will begin with a strategic refresh for the organization with more details and opportunities to engage with this process to come.
