Tinder chief executive Renate Nyborg is leaving the firm less than a year after becoming the boss of the dating app. Tinder’s plans to adopt new technology, including virtual currencies and metaverse-based dating, are also being reviewed in the strategic shake-up. Her exit was one of a number of management changes at Tinder announced by parent company Match Group. The announcement also included the reorganisation of Tinder’s top management team as well as a review of plans for rolling out new technology. The announcements came as Match reported second-quarter results that missed Wall Street expectations. Can the disappointments in results be attributed to the effects of Covid-19?
