Following rumors that Apple CEO Steve Jobs was scheduled to speak at the Wall Street Journal’s D: All Things Digital conference, event organizers confirmed that in fact he will be the event’s opening night speaker.
The event, which was founded by WSJ tech writers Walt Mossberg and Kara Swisher, offers attendees a unique insight into the featured guests because they are interviewed in unscripted and unrehearsed sessions in front of live audiences.
Other guests scheduled to appear at the event include Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer, movie director James Cameron, HTC CEO Peter Chou, Dreamworks Animation CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, and more.
D: All Things Digital is set to run from June 1 through June 3, 2010, in Los Angeles, California.
