By Nicole Rodrigues, 08 Sep 2022
Steve Jobs has left behind an everlasting legacy that has changed the tech industry and pop culture. Now his family and friends are compiling some of the most influential moments and pieces of his life into a curated archive to remember him.
Apple CEO Tim Cook, former design chief Jony Ive, and Jobs’ widow Laurene Powell Jobs are some of the names that have contributed to the digital time capsule, which preserves special documents like an introspective email the late Jobs had sent himself in contemplation of humanity. There are also videos, audio, and other historic pieces that have never seen the light of day until now.
“What’s important is that you have a faith in people, that they’re basically good and smart, and if you give them tools, they'll do wonderful things with them."—Steve Jobs, 1994

According to 9to5Mac, Laurene Powell Jobs hopes her husband’s work will continue to bring people together and inspire the next generation to blaze their own trail.
