What will Apple’s John Ternus era look like?
techcrunch ·
Apple has entered the "Ternus era" after Tim Cook stepped down as CEO, handing the role to former hardware chief John Ternus. Ternus's first memo promised a "huge launch next week," meaning Apple's next iPhone event falls early in his tenure. Cook is not leaving the company entirely; he will stay on as Executive Chairman, focusing on policy relationships. The TechCrunch Equity podcast, hosted by Kirsten Korosec and Sean O'Kane, discussed what Ternus is inheriting and why he may be better positioned to advance software than hardware in the AI era. The episode also covered other tech news of the week. The article frames the key question as what the Ternus era will look like and how much patience shareholders will give him.
