To kick off Apple’s 50th anniversary celebrations, the Computer History Museum will host a panel later tonight featuring several veteran Apple executives, moderated by journalist David Pogue. Here’s how to watch.
Livestream is scheduled for 7 p.m. PDT / 10 p.m. ET
As we covered here, the Computer History Museum will celebrate Apple’s 50th anniversary with a series of events, starting with tonight’s “Apple at 50” panel. And although the in-person event is sold out, you can still watch it live on the CMH’s YouTube channel.
Tonight’s panel will be moderated by veteran journalist David Pogue, who just released his ‘Apple: The First 50 Years’ book, revisiting the company’s history with a mix of new and familiar stories based on interviews with “150 key people who made the journey, including Steve Wozniak, John Sculley, Jony Ive, and many current designers, engineers, and executives.
And speaking of former Apple CEO John Sculley, he will also be at the panel tonight, alongside Senior Employee Chris Espinosa (who joined Apple in 1976 and is the company’s longest-running employee), former Senior Vice President of Hardware Engineering Jon Rubinstein (who will join the panel remotely), and Avadis “Avie” Tenevian, who left Apple in 2006 after serving as Chief Software Technology Officer, and Senior Vice President of Software Engineering.
Here’s what to expect from the event, according to the CHM:
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 will explore how Apple repeatedly redefined itself while holding fast to a distinctive vision.
The livestream is scheduled to start at 7 p.m. PDT / 10 p.m. EDT on The CHM’s YouTube channel, but we’ve also embedded the video below. Alternatively, you can register for a free virtual ticket on the CMH’s event page to save it as a keepsake.
