Bill Gates, born William Henry Gates III on October 28, 1955, in Seattle, Washington, is an American business magnate, software developer, philanthropist, and author. He is best known as the co-founder of Microsoft Corporation, the world’s largest personal computer software company. Gates has played a pivotal role in the technology revolution of the late 20th century and has become one of the wealthiest and most influential individuals globally.

Gates was born into a well-to-do family; his father, William H. Gates Sr., was a prominent attorney, and his mother, Mary Maxwell Gates, served on the board of directors for the United Way and was an active community volunteer. Gates showed an early interest in computers and technology. He began programming at age 13 when he attended Lakeside School, a private preparatory school in Seattle. There, he quickly developed a passion for computer programming, often spending hours on the school’s computer.

In 1973, Gates enrolled at Harvard University, where he studied mathematics and computer science. He excelled academically, but his passion for programming remained his primary focus. While at Harvard, he co-authored a paper on a computer language that would later contribute to his success. In 1975, he dropped out of Harvard to pursue his entrepreneurial ambitions.
