Fearless Genius--The Digital Revolution in Silicon Valley 1985-2000: Doug Menuez at TEDxBeaconStreet

Award-winning photographer Doug Menuez documented Steve Jobs and the leading innovators of California's Silicon Valley during the digital revolution as they invented the technology that would change our world forever.

Menuez will share eyewitness stories of the unknown sacrifice and relentless optimism of a secretive, brilliant tribe during those early and transformative days in the digital revolution. And there are significant lessons from this era that are relevant and inspiring for today's innovators as we attempt to catch the next big wave of transformational technology development.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
