Episode description

This special edition of the GeekWire Podcast is the first in a four-episode series that we’ll be publishing in the months ahead as part of our year-long Microsoft @ 50 project, recognizing the company’s 50th anniversary in April 2025. 

On this episode, we’ll take a fresh look at Microsoft’s startup story with tech historian and author Margaret O’Mara of the University of Washington, author of The Code: Silicon Valley and the Remaking of America; plus highlights from a recent conversation with David Marquardt, Microsoft’s first outside investor and a longtime board member.

Register here for our Microsoft @ 50 event, March 20, 2025, in Seattle.

Microsoft @ 50 is an independent GeekWire editorial project supported by Accenture.

With GeekWire Co-Founder Todd Bishop. Edited by Curt Milton.
