​VK.com former CEO Andrei Rogozov has joined the TON blockchain project.

Andrei Rogozov, former head of social media platform VK.com, is joining the team at the TON Foundation and will oversee product development, all of which he shared in an interview with crypto news outlet CoinDesk.

Andrei was one of the first employees of the social network and began his career in 2007 under the tutelage of Pavel Durov.

After Durov departed from VK.com, Andrei became the company’s head of product and operational management, later becoming CEO.

In 2021, he was named vice president of VK (previously Mail.ru Group) and, currently, is in charge of the social network’s consulting committee. Additionally, Andrei manages experimental projects in the social network industry and other services with social mechanics.

Andrei will continue working at VK, but in a diminished role, serving as an advisor.

The community welcomes Andrei and is proud to have such an experienced individual in the industry onboard. We wish him all the best and can’t wait to see how his influence on future projects will unfold.
