Hey Everyone,
I’m delighted to let you all know that the Computer History Museum has a spectacular celebration of Apple’s 50th anniversary coming up March 11 @ 7:00 p.m. Pacific time.
Event is in-person AND on-line.
On April 1, 1976, Apple Computer was founded with a radical idea: that powerful computing should be personal. Fifty years later, Apple stands as one of the most influential technology companies in history—shaping not only products, but culture, design, and how billions of people interact with technology every day.
Join the Computer History Museum for a special CHM Live evening celebrating Apple’s first half-century, featuring a conversation with leaders who helped guide the company through pivotal moments of re-invention, growth, and global impact. From the early garage days of the 1970s, to the heyday of the Macintosh in the 1980s, to Apple's transformation in the 2000s with the iPhone, the program will explore how Apple repeatedly redefined itself while holding fast to a distinctive vision of products, “for the rest of us."
Join us for a landmark anniversary celebration as only CHM does it, honoring one of Silicon Valley’s most iconic companies, fifty years in to its continuing history-making legacy.
Speakers from across the eras of Apple history include former Apple CEO John Sculley; Senior Employee Chris Espinosa (Apple employee #8); former Senior Vice President (SVP) of Hardware Engineering, Jon Rubinstein (by video);,and former Chief Software Technology Officer and SVP of Software Engineering, Avie Tevanian. Our host for the evening is the wonderfully funny and engaging tech journalist, Mac fan, and correspondent for CBS Sunday Morning, David Pogue.
