On Sunday, a private ceremony took place at Stanford University in the USA, during which personalities from all over the world gathered to talk about Steve Jobs, the former CEO of Apple. We are talking about actors, presidents of companies and a former president of the USA, all of them gathered in the same room to remember the man who changed the technology industry as we know it today. Unfortunately, no video footage from the event will ever be published and it's a shame because we would certainly have learned some interesting things about Steve Jobs. Below is the list of all the personalities who participated in the event.
I find it surprising that Steve Wozniak did not participate in the event even though he was a close friend of Steve Jobs and is the co-founder of Apple.
