NARRATION

Version 1

Before it became a global icon of innovation, Apple Inc. was founded in 1976 by Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak in a California garage with a vision for personal computing. In its early days, Apple faced intense competition and limited resources, struggling to convince consumers that computers could be accessible tools for individuals rather than complex machines for corporations. As pressure mounted in the 1980s and 1990s, internal conflicts and declining sales pushed the company toward collapse, even forcing Jobs out as Apple lost direction. The breakthrough came in 1997 when Jobs returned, simplifying the product line and launching groundbreaking devices like the iMac, followed by transformative innovations in digital music and mobile technology. From that revival, Apple reshaped multiple industries, redefining design, user experience, and consumer technology while becoming one of the most influential and valuable companies in the world.
