Apple CEO Tim Cook will step down after more than a decade leading the company, handing the reins to the iPhone maker’s hardware chief. Cook, who succeeded Steve Jobs in 2011, has overseen Apple’s transformation into a $3 trillion company, expanding its product ecosystem and services while navigating global supply chain challenges. His departure marks the end of an era, with Apple’s board signaling confidence in the hardware leader’s ability to drive innovation in devices such as the iPhone, Mac, and emerging technologies like augmented reality. Analysts note that Cook’s tenure was defined by operational excellence and steady growth, while the transition raises questions about Apple’s future direction in AI, wearables, and sustainability. The move underscores Apple’s intent to keep hardware at the core of its strategy, even as services and software increasingly shape its revenue streams.
