Miss Bill Gates' UK swan song?
By Maggie Holland,
Microsoft's chairman Bill Gates was in the UK yesterday and spoke at an Institute of Directors (IoD) world leader lunch ahead of popping in to visit Prime Minister Gordon Brown.
The IoD event was a pretty exclusive, invitation-only affair so if you didn't get a chance to go and see Gates' last official UK appearance before his impending 'retirement' later this year, don't worry. IT PRO attended the event and, in addition to covering the news of Gates' visionary speech, we've also published the Q&A session that occurred after his speech so you can catch up on what the industry leader had to say.
