John Chen



Chen looks to be bringing BlackBerry back to its roots with new keyboard phones. Even though the company spearheaded the cell-phone-as-computer movement, it lagged behind its touch-screen-based rivals in recent years.



But Chen, who took over the company in November, decided to put the focus back on the keyboard after the touch-screen phones failed to make a mark. Chens made a smart move in realizing that BlackBerry is neither iPhone nor Android, so its better off improving what it’s already good at rather than chasing the competition.



Tim Cook



Quartz predicted that 2014 will be Apples "year of big reveals," including rumors of a larger, 12.9-inch iPad that could replace the current Air, and the most awaited iWatch.



Cook himself promised that 2014 will be a big year for Apple, since 2013 was merely a mediocre year for Apple. He  even has some new important hires (Angela Ahrendts, Kevin Lynch) in place to help him with some "special projects”. Well, keep watching how the year unfolds.
