Ex-Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer announced in a letter on Tuesday that he has stepped down from the company’s board.
“I see a combination of the Clippers, civic contribution, teaching and study taking a lot of time,” Ballmer said a letter to current CEO Satya Nadella. “I have confidence in our approach of mobile-first, cloud-first, and in our primary innovation emphasis on platforms and productivity and the building of capability in devices and services as core business drivers.”
