The foundation reported he died peacefully on Friday, March 24, 2023,
surrounded by family at his home in Hawaii.
Moore and his longtime colleague Robert Noyce founded Intel in July 1968. Moore
initially served as executive vice president until 1975, when he became
president. In 1979, Moore was named chairman of the board and chief executive
officer, posts he held until 1987, when he gave up the CEO position and
continued as chairman. In 1997, Moore became chairman emeritus, stepping down
in 2006.
During his lifetime, Moore also dedicated his focus and energy to philanthropy,
particularly environmental conservation, science and patient care improvements.
Along with his wife of 72 years, he established the Gordon and Betty Moore
Foundation, which has donated more than $5.1 billion to charitable causes since
its founding in 2000."
