Obituary: Microsoft co-founder and billionaire Paul Allen, 65, has died of cancer. He had suffered from non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Allen died this afternoon in Seattle.
Through Vulcan, Allen's network of philanthropic efforts and organizations, the Microsoft co-founder supported research in artificial intelligence and new frontier technologies. The group also invested in Seattle's cultural institutions and the revitalization of parts of the city.
Vulcan CEO Bill Hilf said, "All of us who had the honor of working with Paul feel inexpressible loss today."
"He possessed a remarkable intellect and a passion to solve some of the world's most difficult problems, with the conviction that creative thinking and new approaches could make profound and lasting impact," Hilf said in a statement.
