Steve Wozniak, Co-Founder of Apple, will be speaking at the Kauffman Center on Thursday, November 19th, as part of the 20th anniversary celebration of the Helzberg Entrepreneurial Mentoring Program.

“As a successful entrepreneur, Steve Wozniak understands the importance a mentor can make in someone’s life, which is why we’re so excited to have him help celebrate 20 years of inspiring people through mentorship in Kansas City,” said Barnett Helzberg Jr., HEMP founder.

Mentorship has been a central focus of Wozniak’s career and legacy.

“Being a mentor is the primary thing I want to do in the world, because mentors were so important, every step of my life,” said Wozniak himself in a recent interview with a 14-year-old student.

Mike Lundgren, founder of TEDxKC and former Apple employee, will be moderating the discussion with Wozniak.

Tickets start at $75 and are available online at kauffmancenter.org.
