Who's who at Apple

Scott Forstall (Senior VP, iOS Software)

Who is he?
Forstall headed the team responsible for the iPhone's revolutionary iOS. He worked at NeXT (a company founded by Steve Jobs following his 1985 resignation from Apple) and moved over to Apple when it purchased NeXT in 1996.

Why he matters
Forstall has been described as a 'mini Steve' and reportedly shares the same attention to detail, ambition and high standards as the late visionary himself. Forestall has also been tipped to be Apple's next CEO after Tim Cook – a fitting position for a man who is considered to be one of the fathers of Mac OS X.
