Bill Gates stated that he would allocate most of his wealth, which could reach $200 billion by 2045, to the development of healthcare and education in Africa. He announced this during his speech in the Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa.
Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates announced that his fund will complete operations by 2045, and 99% of his personal capital will be donated to charity. "Most of these funds will be directed to solving problems here in Africa," he said at an event at the African Union headquarters.
Gates emphasized the importance of investing in the health of mothers and the nutrition of children under 4 years old. He paid special attention to the use of artificial intelligence in healthcare. According to him, just as Africa once "skipped" the traditional banking sector by immediately switching to mobile payments, it can now surpass in creating AI-based healthcare systems.
Gates emphasized:
"I don't want people to say that I died rich after my death."
However, even after transferring 99% of his capital, he will remain a billionaire, Bloomberg estimates.
