Elon Musk will join Twitter's board of directors, the social media platform announced on Tuesday. The news comes one day after a regulatory filing revealed the Tesla and SpaceX CEO purchased 9.2% of Twitter stock, officially setting him up as the company's largest shareholder.
Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal shared the news in a tweet Tuesday morning saying, "Through conversations with Elon in recent weeks, it became clear to us that he would bring great value to our Board." Agrawal added as a "passionate believer and intense critic of the service," Musk would, "make us stronger in the long term."
