It has been three years since Xiaomi officially confirmed that Hugo Barra, one of the most visible heads of Google and especially of Android, became its new vice president. That adventure seems to have come to an end and it is that Barra himself has announced through his Facebook account that leaves office for family reasons.
According to what has transpired, Hugo Barra, lived in China without his family and without his friends who continue to reside in Silicon Valley and it has undoubtedly been the main reason for the return to the United States, which will be consumed when the holidays are over for the new Chinese year.
Moment It seems that his departure from Xiaomi will not be total and it is that despite ceasing to be vice president of the company, he will continue to be a consultant, although the influence it could have is unknown. In addition, it has also transpired that once it is established again in the United States, it will embark on new projects, of which absolutely no details are known at the moment.
Without a doubt, the loss for Xiaomi is important, although for a long time many of us have believed that Hugo Barra's weight within the Chinese manufacturer was very different from what he had within Google.
Do you think Xiaomi will be able to confront the loss as vice president of Hugo Barra with guarantees?. Tell us in the space reserved for comments on this post or through any of the social networks in which we are present.
