Google co-founder Larry Page reassures staff about health

Washington, June 23 (ANI): Google's billionaire co-founder Larry Page has reassured his staff at the firm over his health, after he missed the company's annual meeting, and was set to miss two more important engagements in the coming weeks.

Page claimed that "there is nothing seriously wrong with me" and that he would "continue to run the company."

The 39-year-old chief executive would miss the next week's developer conference and the company's next quarterly earnings call.

"Of course Larry will continue to run the company, he's running all the strategic business, decisions and all that, just like today," The Telegraph quoted Google's Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt, as saying.

"In fact, Sergey [Brin, Google co-founder], this is important to note, has said this problem will make Larry a better CEO, because he is going to have to choose his words very carefully. And we wish him obviously a quick recovery," he added.

A Google spokeswoman declined to comment further on Page's condition. (ANI)
