EA has lost its Chief Creative Officer

Posted on Tuesday, 29 April 2008 by Speed, source: Newsweek
Does EA's Chief CREATIVE Officer parting ways with the company sound good to you? It sure as hell doesn't with me.

Anyway, Electronic Arts chief creative officer William 'Bing' Gordon has decided to trade his job at EA for a partnership at venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins Caulfield & Byers.

"There is a new generation who have grown up 'always on, always digital,'" said Gordon. "Driven by their creativity and new usage habits, entertainment and communications are on the verge of previously unimaginable changes. Ever since KPCB funded Electronic Arts' initial business plan in 1982, I have watched the KPCB team find and support brilliant company-makers to harness disruptive digital technologies that benefit people. I cannot wait to join the firm, and work directly with an all-new generation of entrepreneurs."
Gordon is joining John Doerr, Bill Joy and Al Gore at the venture capitalist firm.
