Born on October 28, 1955, in Seattle, Washington, Gates displayed an early aptitude for computers and programming.

In 1975, he partnered with childhood friend Paul Allen to create Microsoft, which went on to revolutionize the personal computing industry with its Windows operating system and Office software suite.

Gates is also widely recognized for his philanthropic efforts. Along with his then-wife Melinda, he founded the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, which focuses on global health, education, and poverty alleviation. The foundation has contributed billions of dollars to initiatives such as vaccine development, infectious disease control, and education reform worldwide.
