 Steve Paul Jobs was an American computer scientist and entrepreneur. Father of the first personal computer and founder of Apple Computer, the most innovative company in the industry. His visionary ideas in the field of personal computers, digital music and mobile telephony revolutionized the markets. When he was 12 years old, he joined the Hewlett-Packard Explorer Club, a youth association in which Hewlett-Packard engineers taught children and young people about the latest developments in the field of computing. After graduating from high school at Homestead High School in Mountain View, Steve Jobs entered Reed College, a liberal arts college in Portland, but dropped out of college a semester later. In 1974 Jobs was hired as a designer by Atari, a company in the video game industry.

His first creation was an imaginative motherboard and then a complete computer, the Apple I, considered the first personal computer in history. In 1976, with the money obtained from the sale of his van, he founded Apple Computer, based in the Jobs family garage. Then the Apple II was an improvement of the previous model, introduced in 1977, becoming the first mass consumer computer.

In 1989, NeXT Computer launched its first computer, full of extraordinary functions, but which was not profitable due to its high price and its incompatibility with most of the existing systems on the market. In 1998, when he was already president of Apple, he revolutionized the computer market with the launch of the iMac, a compact computer integrated into the monitor. In 2001 he entered the music industry with a pocket audio player, the iPod, and two years later he created the iTunes music store. In 2007 it introduced the iPhone, the first of the family of high-end smartphones produced by Apple.
