Apple CEO Tim Cook will be the opening night speaker at the 11th D: All Things Digital conference next month. Last year, Cook joined hosts Kara Swisher and Walt Mossberg for a 100-minute session that covered a wide variety of topics.
There’s lots to talk about, from the explosive growth of the mobile market to intense competition from a range of rivals, most especially Google’s Android, as well as innovative offerings from Korea’s Samsung. It will also be interesting to talk about the changes at Apple under Cook’s leadership, who took over from the late co-founder and industry legend Steve Jobs, as well inquiring about what new products are in the pipeline and how the company is faring in an increasingly high-pressure market.
Tim Cook makes very few public appearances, but appears to be making the D Conference his preferred interview spot much like his predecessor Steve Jobs did. Jobs appeared on the D stage six times in nine years.
D11 will take place from May 28-30, 2013 at the Terranea Resort in Rancho Palos Verdes, California.

You're ****** kidding us, right?
Name anything Samsung has done that has ever been more than a modified 'me too'.
What Macintosh, iPod, iPhone or iPad have they every come up with?
Well, I guess you have a point with their brilliant roll-out presentations like Radio City of the Bollywood fiasco this week.
He'll answer No questions with any substance and continue to say "We Have Great Things in The Pipeline.
It will be nothing more than a rehash of the earnings call.
A fraction of a second later, Tim produced apparently magical sparks of electricity between his hands, powered by the new Apple iWatch hidden up his sleeve.
Mmm innovative might not be the first adjective that would spring to mind.
I hope he talks like a real person this time and not just Apple's CEO.
