Apple Names Nate Gatten as New Vice President of Government Affairs
Apple has appointed Nate Gatten, a veteran executive from American Airlines with Republican ties, as its new vice president of government affairs, effective August 31. He succeeds Lisa Jackson, who led the role until last year and previously served as head of the US Environmental Protection Agency under the Obama administration. Gatten's appointment reflects a shift in Apple's government affairs leadership amid evolving political and policy challenges, with former legal chief Kate Adams remaining in an advisory role until October.
