Andy Grove Dies After Long Suffering from Parkinson's Disease
  • 6 years ago
Former Intel Corporation chief executive Andy Grove has died. He was 79. Grove's youth under Nazi occupation and escape from the Iron Curtain inspired an "only the paranoid survive" management philosophy that saved the chip maker from financial ruin in the 1980s. Intel said Grove died on Monday, but did not specify a cause of death. Grove was instrumental in building Intel into the world's largest chip company during his 37-year career there. He had suffered from Parkinson's disease.
