Roblox, which operates a metaverse – a virtual place where
people play and make transactions - gets 66 million daily users
and is available on mobile devices, desktops, and Microsoft's
Xbox. It is among the world's most popular gaming sites for
children.
The company said it promoted Christina Wootton to Chief
Partnerships Officer, who will oversee all the company's
business relationships, in the wake of Donato's imminent
departure.
Wootton has been at the company since 2014 and has worked with
large brands and corporations including Gucci, Nike, Netflix and
Disney to develop a presence in the Roblox metaverse, the
company said.
"We firmly believe that all brands will eventually have a
presence on Roblox," Wootton said in a statement.
The company also said Arvind KC, hired for the newly created
position of Chief People and Systems Officer, will take over the
recruiting division of human resources that had been reporting
to Donato.
