Welcome Patrick Supanc as Coursera’s new chief product officer

Coursera CEO Greg Hart (Greg Hart)
I am pleased to announce that Patrick Supanc has joined Coursera as our new chief product officer starting today.
Patrick brings extensive experience combining in-depth understanding of customer needs with a strong track record of fostering innovation and business impact. During Amazon’s nearly a decade, he has helped products like Prime, Amazon Hub, and Kindle, before he led digital learning innovations at Pearson and Blackboard. His background in technology and education makes him an ideal leader in driving product strategy and delivering innovative experiences to learners, partners and customers around the world.
Patrick holds a Master of Public Affairs and International Affairs activity at Princeton University, and a Master of Public Policy at the Political and Economic Development at Harvard Kennedy School.
I also want to recognize the excellent work of our product and engineering teams, whose dedication and innovation have driven the momentum of Coursera over the past year. From the launch of AI Translation, Coursera Coaches and Course Builders (in a few months after Chatgpt’s release) to our recent introduction to AI-tuned curriculum and career-based discoveries, their contributions have enabled Coursera to help Coursera deliver world-class learning experiences on a large scale.
As our leadership team grows, we are excited to continue to build on this momentum – providing innovative learning experiences and creating more opportunities for our global community. Please join me in welcoming Patrick to shape the future of learning.
