His June 7, 2011 presentation for the Cupertino, California project (now a [work in progress](http://www.cupertino.org/index.aspx?page=1264 "undefined")) is among the [last footage](http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2031100/Gaunt-frail-cancer-battle-takes-toll-Steve-Jobs-picture-left-Apple.html "undefined") recorded of Jobs before he died from pancreatic cancer that following October. In the video, Jobs describes the building’s futuristic design, which includes curved glass and sustainable energy sources — a physical embodiment of Apple’s (and Jobs’) forward-looking mentality. The “Spaceship” campus presentation is worth watching this week because we’re about to get to see a never-before-seen video of Jobs. A video deposition Jobs taped months before his death is expected to be released publicly this week as Apple is [fending off an old antitrust lawsuit](http://time.com/3613490/steve-jobs-posthumous-lawsuit-apple/ "undefined"). The footage will show Jobs addressing complaints that early iPods only played songs sold on the iTunes Store or from downloaded CDs, and not music from rival stores. ### See The 7 Most Important Tech CEOs You Wouldn't Recognize  Jack Ma, founder of Chinese Internet giant Alibaba, stepped down as that firm's CEO in 2013. But he's still the company's most public face, and after Alibaba's September IPO, China's single richest man. Scott Eells—Bloomberg/Getty Images  Larry Ellison stunned the tech world in September by announcing he's stepping down as CEO of Oracle, the enterprise software company he co-founded in 1977. Since Oracle doesn't sell products to the public like Apple or Microsoft, Ellison's a little less-known outside Silicon Valley: But he's a hugely important figure, having heavily influenced Steve Jobs and a host of other tech leaders. Tomohiro Ohsumi—Bloomberg/Getty Images Advertisement  Tony Hsieh, CEO of shoe-tailer Zappos.com, is a controversial figure in the world of tech chief officers. He's pouring money into Zappos' corporate home of Las Vegas, Nevada, which is welcome by some locals but spurned by others. Still, Zappos is known for being a very fun and very different place to work, thanks in part to Hsieh setting those qualities up as priorities for the company. Noah Berger—Bloomberg/Getty Images  Satya Nadella just took over the reins at Microsoft earlier this year from now-Clippers owner Steve Ballmer, but he's already making his presence known through sizable layoffs and simultaneous acquisitions. Nadella's Microsoft has let go of nearly 15,000 employees this year — a chunk of whom were made redundant when Microsoft closed an approximately \$7.2 billion deal for Nokia's device wing. Also on Microsoft's tab? \$2.5 billion for the Swedish gaming company behind top-hit Minecraft. Microsoft/Corbis  Linkedin CEO Jeff Weiner, formerly a longtime Yahoo employee, has grown the "Facebook For Professionals'" user base and revenue exponentially since coming becoming CEO in 2009. He's got quite the fan base, too: His workers, 100% of whom support him as CEO, according to Glassdoor. Robert Galbrath—Reuters/Corbis Advertisement  John Donahoe has been president and CEO of eBay since 2008. He's now guiding the company in a time of deep uncertainty: In early 2014, eBay settled a nasty public feud with activist investor Carl Icahn, who wants eBay to spin off payment service PayPal as an independent business — and Icahn isn't the only one who thinks that's a good idea. Paul Morris—Bloomberg/Getty Images  Don Mattrick became CEO of Zynga, the social gaming company that brought us FarmVille, in 2013, coming over from Microsoft. He's been tasked with leading Zynga through a tumultuous period — the now publicly-traded company hasn't been able to replicate its FarmVille success, leaving many to wonder about the company's future.
