Big Tech is setting in motion its plans for the next gen of lead designers, engineers, AI chiefs, and even CEOs. Lisa Jackson, who has led Apple’s sustainability efforts since 2013, is now set to retire in January too. He announced the iPhone Air onstage this past September, and has appeared alongside other senior Apple leaders in press interviews and in-store Apple events. Bertrand Nepveu worked in the Apple Vision Pro team from 2017 to 2021, after Apple acquired his VR headset startup Vrvana, and now runs Montreal-based VC firm Triptyq Capital. I think in tandem with someone who is more product-focused [Ternus], it's the way to go for Apple.”
