SANTA CLARA, Calif., May 5, 2023 – Intel and the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation will host a tribute on June 1 to celebrate the life of Gordon Moore, Intel’s co-founder.
Moore died March 24, 2023, at the age of 94. In addition to leading Intel, Moore was a giant of the technology industry and one of America’s leading philanthropists.

To date, the foundation has invested more than $5 billion to conserve the environment, advance science, improve patient care and preserve the special character of the Bay Area.
