TOKYO, JAPAN, April 26, 2007 – Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. (SCEI) and
Sony Corporation (Sony) have jointly announced today that Ken Kutaragi,
Representative Director, Chairman and Group CEO, Sony Computer Entertainment Inc.,
will retire from his executive position at SCEI effective June 19, 2007, when SCEI’s
annual shareholders’ meeting will take place. Mr. Kutaragi will pass on the torch to
the next generation, stepping back from his executive management responsibility of the
company to serve as Honorary Chairman of SCEI.
With his deep and instinctive insight into future technology, Mr. Kutaragi will also
continue to support Sir Howard Stringer, Chairman and CEO, Sony Corporation, as
senior technology advisor.
Concurrently, Kazuo Hirai, currently President and Group COO, SCEI, will be
promoted to President and Group CEO, continuing his responsibility as the leader of the
PlayStation® business worldwide.
Mr. Kutaragi, well known as the “Father of PlayStation”, invented and launched the
original PlayStation in 1994 and its successor, PlayStation 2, in 2000. Since the
introduction of PlayStation and subsequently PlayStation 2, these platforms opened up a
vast market of computer entertainment. The two platforms combined now have an
installed base of more than 200 million units in homes around the world, with more than
2 billion units of PlayStation and PlayStation 2 software titles shipped worldwide. The
third generation of the company’s home computer entertainment system,
PLAYSTATION®3, launched in November 2006 in Japan and North America and in
March 2007 in Europe, will continue to revolutionize the computer entertainment
experience with its immense computational power connected to the network.
After completing the launch of PLAYSTATION 3 worldwide, Mr. Kutaragi has decided
to pursue his dreams beyond PlayStation and to accelerate his network vision.
