CHM Live | Apple at 50: Five Decades of Thinking Different

[Recorded March 11, 2026] 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 reinvention, 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 explores how Apple repeatedly redefined itself while holding fast to a distinctive vision. 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.
