#Apple since defined how a modern #tech company operates, with products assembled in a supply chain stretching from giant operations Cook helped create in #China, #India & #Brazil & a retail #business that operates on 5 continents.
#JohnTernus joined Apple in 2001 & rose through its ranks as he oversaw the development of #Macs & #iPads. He will be Apple’s 8th chief exec since its founding 50 yrs ago & its 3rd since #SteveJobs returned in 1997 to pull the company from the brink of bankruptcy.

@Nonilex don't forget the global tax chain which shows that profits are only incurred in low tax/no tax regions
