When you have a responsibility like that, its hard to put attention on anything else.
Ive never had more energy, and this isnt about retiring.
Im super passionate about the impact I think these organizations can have, Bezos added.
Jassy joined Amazon in 1997 and has led AWS cloud team since its inception.
In the year 2020, Amazon reported $386 billion in sales.
