Then Elon Musk’s takeover of Twitter was suddenly announced, and that five-year plan was rapidly accelerated. The company was on another away day in Iceland at the time of the takeover and CEO Jon von Tetzchner latched on to Ødegaard’s idea. “He started talking about it all the time,” said Ødegaard. “And instead of me being the one who's spearheading it, it was pretty much Jon at that stage. And Jon likes to do things real fast.”The team took the decision to go for it.

Constantly.”
