Chips made byIntel, now the world’s largest semiconductor company by revenue, are used in Apple computersand servers in the data centres behind some of the world’s most popular apps.

  格罗夫是英特尔的早期员工,他带领该公司从生产内存芯片转向生产微处理器,使营收扩大为原先的十倍以上,并树立了“Intel Inside”品牌。如今,英特尔已是全球营收最高的半导体公司。该公司生产的芯片被用在苹果(Apple)电脑和众多数据中心里的服务器上,这些数据中心支撑着一些全球最受欢迎的应用。

  Brian Krzanich, Intel chief executive, said the chipmaker was “deeply saddened” by his death. “Andy made the impossible happen, time and again, and inspired generations oftechnologists, entrepreneurs and business leaders,” he said. Andy Bryant, Intel chairman, saidMr Grove’s approach to corporate strategy still influenced prominent thinkers andcompanies around the world.

  英特尔首席执行官科再奇(Brian Krzanich)表示,公司对格罗夫的逝世“深感悲痛”。他说:“安迪一次又一次地把不可能变为可能,启发了好几代技术人员、创业者和商界领袖的灵感。”英特尔董事长安迪•布赖恩特(AndyBryant)表示,格罗夫的公司战略思路仍影响着世界各地的杰出思想家和企业。

  Many technology leaders took to Twitter to express their thoughts on his achievements.

  Tim Cook, Apple chief executive, called Mr Grove “one of the giants of the technology world”.

  苹果首席执行官蒂姆•库克(Tim Cook)称,格罗夫是“科技界的巨人之一”。

  “He loved our country and epitomised America at its best,” he said. Marc Andreessen, venturecapitalist at Andreessen Horowitz, said he was “the best company builder Silicon Valley has everseen, and likely will ever see”.

  库克说:“他爱我们的国家,并且是美国最大优势的典型例证。”安德里森•霍罗威茨基金(AndreessenHorowitz)的风险投资家马克•安德里森(Marc Andreessen)表示,格罗夫是“硅谷有史以来最出色的企业缔造者,以后可能也不会再有更好的了”。

  去年9月,在硅谷丘吉尔俱乐部(Annual Churchill Club)的年度评奖中,格罗夫因“启发性的领导风格”而受到表彰。在对格罗夫的悼念中,风险投资家本•霍罗威茨(Ben Horowitz)将他誉为“硅谷的缔造者”。
