Boris Mizhen Reflects on Steve Jobs’ Innovative Legacy
Oct 16, 2026
New York, NY, United States, October 16, 2026 -- Although Steve Jobs’ name remains closely associated with the evolution of personal computing, his legacy also reflects the impact of creative entrepreneurship and innovative thinking. His ability to build successful ventures while navigating significant challenges has served as an inspiration to many entrepreneurs, including online entrepreneur and marketing professional Boris Mizhen. Mizhen has cited Apple co-founder and former CEO Steve Jobs as an influential figure in his own professional development, particularly for the role that innovation, creativity, and technology played in Jobs’ approach to business. That influence helped shape Mizhen’s interest in pursuing opportunities within the technology and digital marketing sectors.
“Perhaps what inspired me most about Steve Jobs was his strategic expertise,” Mizhen shared. This is a fact that cannot be disputed, as Jobs’ greatest strength is widely unknown to the public. At the time of Apple’s formation, Jobs was helping facilitate the development and sale of the Apple I computer. While the industry did take notice, it was the Apple II, which Jobs helped develop, that skyrocketed the company to fame and fortune. Boris Mizhen admires the earlier stories about Jobs’ enthusiasm and integrity and applies them to his own work ethic in his business. Mizhen reveals, “It is through Jobs’ lessons that I learned technical ability alone won’t ensure success in the technology field. The trick is to anticipate what the public wants and know how to provide it.”
Another trait of Jobs’ that Boris Mizhen has adopted is his unique business judgment. “History has shown that although his business decisions would not always result in immediate profits, his willingness to take risks due to a long-term vision resulted in great successes,” he notes. Apple’s haste to change direction and part ways with Jobs saw the company hit an all-time low. However, his return to the company was the catalyst for Apple’s accession to the very top of the technology world. “His decision to branch out into developing or improving software outside the company’s original focus no doubt terrified investors and shareholders,” Mizhen said. “But we all know the result of that bold business move!” Boris Mizhen has established himself as an authority in marketing strategy, online advertising, digital media, social media, and a host of related fields due to the lessons learned from pioneers like Jobs. Mizhen is sure to add that mirroring Jobs’ ability to turn dreams into great successes was also reliant on one more trait: forward thinking. “A favorite quote I share with Jobs is by hockey great Wayne Gretzky: ‘I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been.’ I always look ahead to see where the technology and the marketing world will head next and ensure I’ll already be there when it arrives!”

Ruling party lawmaker issued US visa, days after refusal
Rep. Jin Sung-joon of the ruling Democratic Party of Korea said Saturday he has been issued a U.S. visa for a trip to the U.S. Pacific Command, days after he said his application was rejected. Jin, who serves as chairman of the parliamentary defense committee, said in a Facebook post that he received the visa from the U.S. Embassy in Seoul and that it was fortunate the U.S. State Department has issued the official A-2 visa, albeit belatedly. The lawmaker said he will depart Sunday afternoon and hold discussions with the U.S Pacific commander and other U.S. military leaders about strengthening bilateral security cooperation and developing a future-oriented alliance. On Wednesday, Jin had said his U.S. visa application was rejected and shared on Facebook what appeared to be a document that showed his application was refused. Jin expressed strong regret, saying the rejection was difficult to understand, given that he had visited the U.S. command in 2014 as a member of the parliamentary committee. The exact reason for the denial was unclear, but some observers note that Jin's past conviction
