Apple‘s Eddy Cue will be honored next month at Cannes Lions with the festival’s Entertainment Person of the Year Award. The nod comes as recognition for Cue’s role in steering the tech giant’s entertainment and services unit, and for the fast rise of the Apple TV platform since 2019.

Cue, who is Apple’s senior VP of services and health, will deliver a keynote seminar on the first day of the event that runs June 22-26 in the seaside restort town on the French Riviera. Cue will speak with Jerry Bruckheimer, the Hollywood veteran who produced last year’s worldwide box office hit “F1: The Movie” for Apple.
