Technology Foundation

Our passion is to create technology that changes the world.


Two men start a company and change the world forever. One will become one of the inventors of the integrated circuit—the other, the author of Moore's Law. Together, Robert Noyce and Gordon Moore founded Intel Corporation, the world's most successful semiconductor company. Today, their imagination and relentless pursuit of innovation live on.

Meet Gordon Moore

In 1965, Gordon Moore predicted that the number of transistors squeezed onto a chip would double every two years—today more than 10 million can fit onto a space no bigger than the tip of a pen.

Moore's Law

"The complexity for minimum component costs has increased at a rate of roughly a factor of two per year. Certainly over the short term this rate can be expected to continue, if not to increase. Over the longer term, the rate of increase is a bit more uncertain, although there is no reason to believe it will not remain nearly constant for at least 10 years."
