Tim Berners-Lee

Professor of Computer Science, University of Oxford & Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT); Director of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C)

Sir Tim Berners-Lee is a British computer scientist best known as the inventor of the World Wide Web, created in 1989 while at CERN. He proposed the first system of hypertext to link documents over the internet, laying the foundation for today’s interconnected digital world. Berners-Lee has since focused on web standards, open data, and digital rights, through his role as Director of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and as co-founder of the Open Data Institute. His more recent project, Solid, aims to give users control of their personal data, challenging centralised data models and emphasising trust, privacy, and interoperability.
