WhatsApp’s getting a new boss, and Meta’s looking to India for their pick. They just named Kunal Shah, the founder of Cred, as the next head of WhatsApp. He’s taking over from Will Cathcart, who spent almost seven years leading the app and helped it reach over three billion users around the world.But that’s not all. Meta’s also investing $900 million into Cred, Shah’s own fintech startup. This big move, and the leadership change, show just how much India matters to Meta’s bigger plans. WhatsApp’s moving into a new era, with a focus on business tools, artificial intelligence, and getting people more involved with the platform.
