Intel General Counsel Defects To Apple Day After Gelsinger Joins EMC
September 15, 2009 12:09 PM ET
On Tuesday, Apple named Bruce Sewell as its new general counsel and senior vice president, Legal and Government Affairs, reporting to Apple CEO Steve Jobs. Sewell comes to the company from Intel, where he held the same position.
Sewell replaces Daniel Cooperman, a two-year Apple veteran, who is retiring at the end of the month. Prior to Apple, Cooperman was general counsel at Oracle.
"With Bruce's extensive experience in litigation, securities and intellectual property, we expect this to be a seamless transition," Jobs said in a statement.
The news comes just a day after Intel's Pat Gelsinger joined EMC as president and COO of Information Infrastructure Products.
At Intel, Gelsinger served as senior vice president and co-general manager of Intel's Digital Enterprise Group, the company's largest business group that accounts for more than half of Intel's annual revenue.
