His historic decision Bill Gates 2006 ceases to deal with Microsoft on a daily basis was put in application in July 2008. After 31 years, he would stop handling everything, and as it was announced at the time, he would forever retain the position of chairman and advisor to issues technology. Besides, as early as 2000, he had given the position of CEO to Steven Ballmer. His main occupation since July 2008 has been the work of his foundation, Bill and Melinda Gates -a fact that differentiated him from other tycoons with rich philanthropic work, since Gates from an early age, being 50 years old, worked "full-time" in the daily work of his charity.
However, developments in industry seem to have changed its priorities. Maybe it's the pressure of the shareholders who see Microsoft lost something, maybe once and he himself reveals that he wanted and could only return to prove that his own Microsoft can meet the challenges.
Bill Gates will be present at Microsoft every day and devote one-third of his time (that is, we assume a normal eighth hour) to meetings with developer groups working in different areas. From his recorded statement but and by Nandellas' choice for the position of CEO it turns out that Microsoft has already laid out its plan for the development of an Internet platforms that will transfer everything to the cloud.
