Given the nature of the event, Cook is likely to speak about Apple's overall role in supporting startups and entrepreneurs through its different platforms, such as the App Store.

‌Tim Cook‌ last attended a public forum in March and has previously used public appearances such as these to echo Apple's stance on user privacy and its values. The conference will include more than 3,000 investors from around the world and more than 13,000 startups. More details can be found on its website.

I‘m a simple man, give me Face ID, promotion and mini led on the MacBook line up and it‘s about time they got rid of or allow us to hide the stupid home bar on iOS/iPadOS, doubt any of these will happen this year.
