Tim Cook to Reportedly Step Down as Apple CEO in 2026; Successor to Be Announced After January
Apple veteran Tim Cook will step down from his position as the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the company next year, according to a report. Cook, who turned 65 this year, took over the position after the passing of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs in 2011 and is finally expected to depart the company after 14 years in charge. The report suggests that the Cupertino-based tech giant has intensified its efforts to find the successor, and Cook himself is said to have voiced his preference for an internal candidate as his replacement.
