After 35 years with the company, Craig Barrett plans to retire as chairman of Intel in May, the chip maker announced Friday.
Barrett worked alongside Intel founders Gordon Moore and Bob Noyce and has served in a variety of roles including CEO, a position he gave up in 2005. While he's credited with helping Intel in the 1990s grow to become the company it is today, he has in recent years been active in initiatives that aim to bring technology to emerging countries.
