《财富》500强科技教父大盘点

    谷歌首席执行官拉里•佩奇

    佩奇已经成了“探月”的同义词，意思是解决重大关键问题。2013年，佩奇向人们展示了谷歌（Google）的“探月”项目会有多么的重大和关键——他把源源不断的搜索引擎广告收入投向一些似乎是来自科幻小说的创新项目，比如机器人、无人机、自动驾驶汽车、可穿戴计算设备以及监测糖尿病人血糖水平的隐形眼镜。此外，别忘了谷歌用巨大气球为人们提供互联网服务的Loon项目，以及为了对抗衰老和死亡而成立的人类健康研究机构Calico。

    Larry Page, CEO, Google

    Page has become synonymous with the term “moonshot,” or solving big, radical problems. In 2013, he showed just how big and radical Google’s moonshots could be, using funds from the company’s money-printing search advertising business to invest in innovations seemingly pulled from the pages of science fiction: Robots, drones, self-driving cars, wearable computing, and contact lenses that monitor a diabetic’s glucose levels. And don’t forget Project Loon, Google’s giant internet service balloons, or Calico, the company’s project to fight aging and fend off death.
