Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin have announced they are stepping down from top roles at the online giant’s parent company. The founders will leave their respective roles as Alphabet’s chief executive officer and president but will remain on the board. According to a statement, Google’s CEO Sundar Pichai will become Alphabet’s CEO, too.

Alphabet was created in 2015 as part of a corporate restructuring of Google, which Larry Page and Sergey Brin founded in a California garage in 1998. The parent company was intended to make the tech giant’s activities “cleaner and more accountable” as it expanded from internet search into other areas such as self-driving cars. The duo moved from Google to Alphabet when it was formed to focus on starting new initiatives.
