Jonathan Ive, Apple’s senior vice president of Industrial Design, who was knighted at Buckingham Palace last week, tops the annual “Wired 100,” a list that names the key figures in the UK’s technology industry, reports “The Telegraph” (http://macte.ch/YH2HN).
He moves up from the seventh spot in 2011. Ive replaces last year’s winner, Facebook’s top European executive, Joanna Shields, in the top position.
