Apple’s Annual Shareholders Meeting to Take Place Virtually on March 10
Those who want to attend, vote, and submit questions during the annual meeting can visit the virtual meeting website and enter a control number included in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials provided to shareholders. Apple states online access will open approximately 15 minutes before the start of the meeting, but questions can be submitted in advance through Thursday, March 9 at 8:59 p.m. Pacific Time. Voting is open to shareholders of record at the close of business on January 9, 2023.
Items of business will include voting to re-elect the Board of Directors, ratifying Ernst & Young LLP as Apple’s public accounting firm, approving executive compensation, voting on shareholder proposals, and more.
Apple’s shareholders meetings are typically not very interesting to the public, as the company’s executives often give vague answers and avoid discussing future products. However, the meetings can occasionally reveal a few interesting tidbits. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, the meetings were held in person at Steve Jobs Theater.

Staff WFH could soon be virtually back – using high-tech avatars of themselves
STAFF working from home will soon be virtually back in the office — by using a robotic version of themselves.
Engineers have designed high-tech avatars which can nod, turn their heads 360 degrees and communicate with colleagues who are on-site.
Staff can control the bots via their phone or laptop while kicking back from wherever they choose.
Users can even adjust their droid to increase its height by six inches to get on eye level with co-workers.
Japanese electronics company Kyocera said its automatons would help remote workers stay connected with office-based colleagues, reduce stress, boost hybrid communication and even let them chat casually with workmates.
The Kyoto-based tech giant said: “Remote workers have difficulty participating in casual office conversations, which can lead them to feel overlooked by colleagues connecting with each other in a physical location.
“Likewise, on-site colleagues may feel isolated from remote workers who miss important social cues in conversation.
“Kyocera’s new physical avatar provides an in-office physical representation.”
