Apple Founders: Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak
One of the most iconic names in technology and innovation, Steve Jobs, was also one of the most influential CEOs of the current generation. From their humble beginnings from 1976 to a multi-billion dollar company, Jobs went through it all while battling pancreatic cancer on his own, shocking the world with his death in October 2011.
Apple's two "Steves" became one of the most influential duos in the technology industry, then formed the Apple Computer Company with a fellow engineer, Steve Wozniak. Both worked on the first Apple computer that would become the first Macintosh prototype that they would sell on different retail stores before facing a massive success.

The check signifies a lot of beginnings and humble starts that any company could start small and grow as massive as one of the most influential and valuable companies in the market now.
