Summary:
The ultimate insider’s look at the newest titans of tech, in the editorial team at Forbes
Silicon Valley’s new billionaires are an unconventional breed, turning suggestions into money at a rate never before observed in human history. Their ascension demonstrates a turning stage in how great fortunes are made and exactly how technology disseminates.
Among these golden boys are: Elon Musk, billionaire bachelor and founder of Paypal, electric carmaker Tesla, and private space firm SpaceX; Evan Spiegel, 23-year old creator of Snapchat, who recently rejected a $3 billion present from Facebook; and Alex Karp, the eccentric philosopher with almost no tech history who transformed Palantir into a data-mining champion.
During the last three years, Forbes has published indepth information of this new batch of billionaires, including the founders of Spotify, Dropbox, Tumblr, and Twitter. Right now, in a compilation presented and updated by Forbes editor Randall Street, supporters and critics as well will receive a comprehensive look at who these super-entrepreneurs are and what they state about their own achievement and their plans for future years.
