New Leaders to Support Our Next Phase of Growth

Today, we're sharing some exciting news about Runway's leadership. Our co-founder Anastasis Germanidis is stepping into the role of co-CEO alongside Cristóbal Valenzuela. Anastasis has been the driving force behind our research and the vision that makes Runway's technology unlike anything else in the world – this title change simply formalizes a structure that already existed.

We're also proud to announce a new generation of Runway leaders stepping into expanded roles across the company:

Each of these leaders has been instrumental to our growth, and we're thrilled to continue working with them to shape the future of world simulation.
