A Silicon Valley icon and philanthropist for more than thirty years, Wozniak helped shape the computing industry with his design of Apple\u2019s first line of products. Together with the late Steve Jobs, Wozniak founded Apple Computer Inc. in 1976, and developed the Apple I personal computer. A year later, they unveiled the Apple II, launching the personal computing industry as we know it. For his achievements at Apple, former President Ronald Reagan in 1985 awarded Wozniak the National Medal of Technology, the highest honor bestowed on America\u2019s leading innovators.<\/p>\n

Inducted into the Inventors Hall of Fame in 2000, Wozniak received the Heinz Award for Technology, The Economy and Employment for single-handedly designing the first personal computer, and for then redirecting his lifelong passion for math and electronics toward lighting the fires of excitement for education in grade school students and their teachers.<\/p>\n

Wozniak is Chief Scientist at Primary Data and author of the New York Times\u2019 best-selling autobiography \u201ciWoz: Computer Geek to Cult Icon.\u201d<\/p>\n

With more than 60% of SPC\u2019s annual enrollment of 45,000 students relying on tuition assistance, scholarships play a critical role in the student success and help ensure that graduates are equipped with the high-demand skills necessary to address the opportunities of a rapidly changing marketplace.<\/p>\n

The event is sponsored by: Raymond James; Lynn Hensley; The Bank of Tampa; Bright House Networks; Merrill Lynch; Bristol-Myers Squibb; Apple Employee #302; Cisco; Gregory, Sharer & Stuart; RBC Wealth Management; RedVector; Tribridge; Jagged Peak; and AgileThought.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
