Meta Picks Southeast Asia Veteran to Head Asia-Pacific Region

Meta Platforms Inc. is elevating its longtime head of Southeast Asia to be its senior-most business executive for the broader Asia-Pacific region, one of its main growth markets.

Benjamin Joe has been appointed Meta’s new regional vice president for the region, a Meta spokesperson said Thursday. The role has long been occupied by industry veteran Dan Neary, who in March said he was departing the company in the coming months.
