Michael Bloomberg is the founder and CEO of Bloomberg, a media, software and data company that’s a staple in the finance world. Michael has been one of the most impactful and influential technologists and media moguls of the last 30 years.
Bloomberg, the company he built, generates $10 billion dollars in revenue with 325000 customers. Bloomberg is the world’s best aggregator, analyzer and dissipater of the world’s most important information… financial information.
In his autobiography, “Bloomberg by Bloomberg”, he wrote, “-it’s the doers, the lean and hungry ones, those with ambition in their eyes and fire in their bellies and no notions of social caste, who go the furthest and achieve the most.”
