Welcome to (scnewz.com)
On April 1, 1976, a technology company was started whose name is (Apple) company, which people also know by the name of iPhone company. Its headquarters is in Cupertino, California. I will tell you more about it ahead. The company was founded by 3 personalities whose names are (Steve Jobs), (Steve Wozniak), (Ronald Wayne).
Talking about Steve Jobs, his full name was (Steven Paul Jobs). Steve Jobs was the person who named this company (Apple). It is said that Steve Jobs loved fruits very much and he was a vegetarian, and among all fruits, he liked the apple the most. That is why Steve Jobs suggested this name.
(Steve Wozniak) also played a very special role in this company. His full name was (Stephen Gary Wozniak). He designed Apple’s first computer. He was very technical minded. Steve Wozniak was also awarded the National Medal of Technology.
Ronald Wayne, his full name was (Ronald Gerald Wayne). He was the third co-founder of Apple company. He had 10% shares in Apple company. It is said that he sold his shares just after 12 days, that too for only $800. Just think, if today he still had those shares, they would be worth around $100 billion or even more. This is also called the world’s biggest missed opportunity.
Apple company in the beginning used to make computers, but when they launched their first iPhone mobile in 2007, they created a storm in the mobile industry. Before that, Apple had created 2 big storms when in 1998 they launched the (iMac), and in 2001 they launched the (iPod). After 2007, in 2010, they launched the (iPad). Another series of iPads also came – MacBook, which were very high-level laptops. Then in 2015, they launched a smart watch by the name (Apple Watch).
