Najbogatejši ljudje na svetu so svoje bogastvo pridobili predvsem z inovacijami in vodenjem v tehnološkem sektorju ter luksuzni industriji. Elon Musk je prvi v zgodovini, ki je presegel premoženje v vrednosti 400 milijard dolarjev, kar je dosegel predvsem zaradi rasti vrednosti podjetja SpaceX.

• Najbogatejši Slovenci 2024 / Iza Sia Login, Samo Login, Jure Knez, Vesna in Dari Južna, družina Šešok

Vsako leto se lestvica najbogatejših ljudi na svetu spreminja zaradi nihanj na finančnih trgih, tehnoloških inovacij in globalnih gospodarskih trendov.

Po najnovejših podatkih revije Forbes za leto 2025 je seznam desetih najbogatejših ljudi na svetu naslednji:

• Elon Musk

Na prvem mestu ostaja Elon Musk, izvršni direktor Tesle, SpaceX-a, X (nekdanji Twitter) in xAI. Njegovo premoženje je v letu 2025 naraslo na neverjetnih 421,2 milijarde dolarjev. Glavni razlog za njegovo bogastvo je strm porast vrednosti podjetja SpaceX, ki se širi v komercialne vesoljske polete in satelitske komunikacije prek omrežja Starlink. Tudi Tesla ohranja močan tržni delež na področju električnih vozil.

• Jeff Bezos

Drugo mesto zaseda Jeff Bezos, ustanovitelj Amazona, s premoženjem 233,5 milijarde dolarjev. Po upokojitvi z mesta izvršnega direktorja Amazona je Bezos osredotočen na razvoj vesoljskega podjetja Blue Origin in vlaganja v napredno robotiko ter umetno inteligenco.

• Larry Ellison

Na tretjem mestu je Larry Ellison, soustanovitelj in izvršni direktor podjetja Oracle, s 209,7 milijarde dolarjev premoženja. Oracle ostaja eno vodilnih podjetij na področju podatkovnih baz in oblaka, kar je prispevalo k rasti njegovega bogastva.

• Mark Zuckerberg

Ustanovitelj in izvršni direktor Mete, Mark Zuckerberg, je na četrtem mestu z 202,5 milijarde dolarjev premoženja. Njegova osredotočenost na metaverzum in umetno inteligenco je podjetju prinesla nove prihodke, kar je vplivalo na rast vrednosti njegovih delnic.

• Bernard Arnault

Predsednik LVMH, Bernard Arnault, je najbogatejši Evropejec na lestvici s premoženjem 168,8 milijarde dolarjev. Njegovo podjetje ostaja vodilno na področju luksuznih izdelkov, vključno z blagovnimi znamkami, kot so Louis Vuitton, Dior in Moët Hennessy.

• Larry Page

Larry Page, soustanovitelj Googla, ima v letu 2025 premoženje v vrednosti 156 milijard dolarjev. Alphabet, matično podjetje Googla, je vodilno na področju umetne inteligence in digitalnega oglaševanja.

• Sergey Brin

Takoj za Larryem Pagem je njegov soustanovitelj Sergey Brin, katerega premoženje znaša 149 milijard dolarjev. Njegove naložbe v napredno tehnologijo in biotehnologijo so mu pomagale ohraniti visoko mesto na lestvici.

• Warren Buffett

Legendarni vlagatelj in izvršni direktor Berkshire Hathawayja, Warren Buffett, ima v letu 2025 premoženje 141,7 milijarde dolarjev. Kljub visoki starosti ostaja eden najuspešnejših vlagateljev vseh časov.

• Steve Ballmer

Nekdanji izvršni direktor Microsofta in lastnik košarkarske ekipe LA Clippers, Steve Ballmer, ima 124,3 milijarde dolarjev premoženja. Njegove naložbe v tehnologijo in športno industrijo so se izkazale za izjemno donosne.

• Jensen Huang

Na desetem mestu je Jensen Huang, izvršni direktor podjetja Nvidia, z 117,2 milijarde dolarjev premoženja. Nvidia je ključni igralec na področju umetne inteligence in grafičnih procesorjev, kar je pripomoglo k njegovi visoki uvrstitvi.

Če seštejemo vse skupaj:

421,2+233,5+209,7+202,5+168,8+156+149+141,7+124,3+117,2=1923,9421,2 + 233,5 + 209,7 + 202,5 + 168,8 + 156 + 149 + 141,7 + 124,3 + 117,2 = 1923,9

Skupno premoženje desetih najbogatejših ljudi na svetu v letu 2025 znaša približno 1,92 bilijona USD.

Zaključek

Leto 2025 je leto tehnoloških inovacij in prebojev, kar se odraža tudi na lestvici najbogatejših. Medtem ko Elon Musk nadaljuje svojo prevlado s projekti na področju vesolja in umetne inteligence, so tudi drugi milijarderji s strateškimi naložbami in inovacijami utrdili svoje mesto na vrhu. Globalno gospodarstvo se hitro razvija, kar pomeni, da se lahko ta lestvica v prihodnjih letih še spremeni.

Alphabet – https://abc.xyz/ bo postal krovna znamka/podjetje, pod katero bo spadal tudi Google. Larry Page, soustanovitelj Googla, je danes javnosti sporočil odločitev, da sta s Sergeyem Brinom ustanovila novo podjetje Alphabet, pod katerega bosta združila podjetja, ki jih imata v lasti. Nova krovna firma bo pod svoj dežnik sprejela vsa podjetja, ki sta jih ustanovila, vendar nekako niso sodila povsem pod Google.

Alphabet bo veliko več kot zgolj Google, saj bodo v njem nastajali tudi novi projekti, kot so Life Sciences, Calico, X lab, Wing…

Larry Page bo v novem podjetju CEO, Sergey  Brin President, Sundar Pichai pa postaja CEO Googla.

Celoten tekst:

As Sergey and I wrote in the original founders letter 11 years ago, “Google is not a conventional company. We do not intend to become one.” As part of that, we also said that you could expect us to make “smaller bets in areas that might seem very speculative or even strange when compared to our current businesses.” From the start, we’ve always strived to do more, and to do important and meaningful things with the resources we have. 

We did a lot of things that seemed crazy at the time. Many of those crazy things now have over a billion users, like Google Maps, YouTube, Chrome, and Android. And we haven’t stopped there. We are still trying to do things other people think are crazy but we are super excited about.

We’ve long believed that over time companies tend to get comfortable doing the same thing, just making incremental changes. But in the technology industry, where revolutionary ideas drive the next big growth areas, you need to be a bit uncomfortable to stay relevant.

Our company is operating well today, but we think we can make it cleaner and more accountable. So we are creating a new company, called Alphabet. I am really excited to be running Alphabet as CEO with help from my capable partner, Sergey, as President.

What is Alphabet? Alphabet is mostly a collection of companies. The largest of which, of course, is Google. This newer Google is a bit slimmed down, with the companies that are pretty far afield of our main internet products contained in Alphabet instead. What do we mean by far afield? Good examples are our health efforts: Life Sciences (that works on the glucose-sensing contact lens), and Calico (focused on longevity). Fundamentally, we believe this allows us more management scale, as we can run things independently that aren’t very related.

Alphabet is about businesses prospering through strong leaders and independence. In general, our model is to have a strong CEO who runs each business, with Sergey and me in service to them as needed. We will rigorously handle capital allocation and work to make sure each business is executing well. We’ll also make sure we have a great CEO for each business, and we’ll determine their compensation. In addition, with this new structure we plan to implement segment reporting for our Q4 results, where Google financials will be provided separately than those for the rest of Alphabet businesses as a whole.

This new structure will allow us to keep tremendous focus on the extraordinary opportunities we have inside of Google. A key part of this is Sundar Pichai. Sundar has been saying the things I would have said (and sometimes better!) for quite some time now, and I’ve been tremendously enjoying our work together. He has really stepped up since October of last year, when he took on product and engineering responsibility for our internet businesses. Sergey and I have been super excited about his progress and dedication to the company. And it is clear to us and our board that it is time for Sundar to be CEO of Google. I feel very fortunate to have someone as talented as he is to run the slightly slimmed down Google and this frees up time for me to continue to scale our aspirations. I have been spending quite a bit of time with Sundar, helping him and the company in any way I can, and I will of course continue to do that. Google itself is also making all sorts of new products, and I know Sundar will always be focused on innovation—continuing to stretch boundaries. I know he deeply cares that we can continue to make big strides on our core mission to organize the world’s information. Recent launches like Google Photos and Google Now using machine learning are amazing progress. Google also has some services that are run with their own identity, like YouTube. Susan is doing a great job as CEO, running a strong brand and driving incredible growth.

Sergey and I are seriously in the business of starting new things. Alphabet will also include our X lab, which incubates new efforts like Wing, our drone delivery effort. We are also stoked about growing our investment arms, Ventures and Capital, as part of this new structure.

Alphabet Inc. will replace Google Inc. as the publicly-traded entity and all shares of Google will automatically convert into the same number of shares of Alphabet, with all of the same rights. Google will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alphabet. Our two classes of shares will continue to trade on Nasdaq as GOOGL and GOOG.

For Sergey and me this is a very exciting new chapter in the life of Google—the birth of Alphabet. We liked the name Alphabet because it means a collection of letters that represent language, one of humanity’s most important innovations, and is the core of how we index with Google search! We also like that it means alpha‑bet (Alpha is investment return above benchmark), which we strive for! I should add that we are not intending for this to be a big consumer brand with related products—the whole point is that Alphabet companies should have independence and develop their own brands.

We are excited about…

• Getting more ambitious things done.
• Taking the long-term view.
• Empowering great entrepreneurs and companies to flourish.
• Investing at the scale of the opportunities and resources we see.
• Improving the transparency and oversight of what we’re doing.
• Making Google even better through greater focus.
• And hopefully… as a result of all this, improving the lives of as many people as we can.

What could be better? No wonder we are excited to get to work with everyone in the Alphabet family. Don’t worry, we’re still getting used to the name too!

Google timeline je zanimiv:
1995 – na Stanfordu se spoznata 24 letni Larry Page in 23 letni Sergey Brin
1996 – oba sodelujeta na projektu iskalnika BackRub
1997 – odločita se, da BackRub potrebuje novo ime – Google – izpeljanka iz besede googol – 1 googol = 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,
000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
1998 – soustanovitelj Sun-a Andy Bechtolsheim napiše ček za 100.000$ na ime Google Inc. Ustanovi se firma Google Technology Inc.. Craig Silverstein je prvi zaposlen v firmi.
1999 – Sequoia Capital vloži v projekt 25mio $. “Googlers” so ljudje, ki uporabljajo Google.

Vse ostalo je del zgodovine, ki smo ji bili lahko priča. Sam se spomnim prvega stika z Google iskalnikom, ki se mi je zdel drugačen. Pred tem sem uporabljal Webcralerja, Yahoo, Lycoos, MatKurjo, kjer sem lahko iskal po kategorijah. Google pa je ta del obrnil na glavo in ponudil samo eno vnosno polje in gumbek. In s tem naredil revolucijo, ki traja in traja in ki nas vsak mesec na novo razveseljuje s svojimi novostmi.

Project 10 to the 100th is a call for ideas to change the world by helping as many people as possible.

oh, all right. Fine. April Fool’s. Ha, ha, ha. It isn’t real. There. Are you happy? Does it please you to drag us out of our lovely little fantasy world, to crush all our hopes and dreams? Is that really what you need to hear? Fine, you’ve heard it. Virgle isn’t real.
Yet.

Zgodovina Googlovega loga sega v leto 1998, ko so se preimenovali iz BackRub v Google. In takrat se je pojavil njihov prvi logo, ki so ga uporabljali malce več kot dva meseca. Zamenjali so ga z novim, vendar je bil tudi njegov rok trajanja omejen na malo manj kot eno leto. Sedaj pa uporabljajo logo, ki ga je ustvaril Ruth Kedar.
Leta 1999 sta Larry Page in Sergey Brin ustvarila prvi Doodle, ki je postal njihova stalnica. Ob različnih praznikih, dogodkih, obletnicah smrti in vsem ostalem, zamenjajo svoj znameniti logo, za precej drugačnega, za Doodle.
Od leta 2000 naprej skrbi za Doodle Dennis Hwang in do sedaj jih je ustvaril že zelooo veliko. In vsak je unikaten in zanimiv.
Par mojih najljubših:
