2. Andy Rubin

Company:  Android Inc.

At Apple: Engineer

Andy Rubin, the co-founder and former CEO of both Danger Inc. and Android Inc., is currently the Senior Vice President of Mobile at Google.

Rubin’s innovation, Android, is now the most used mobile OS. He has four patents in his name for his innovations.

Rubin started his career as an engineer at Apple in the 90s. When he stepped out of the company to create new innovations, Apple felt, “grapes are sour”, and assumed that he had acquired too much inspiration from his former company.
