Biography

Larry Ellison is chairman, chief technology officer and cofounder of software giant Oracle, of which he owns roughly 40%.

Ellison gave up the Oracle CEO role in 2014 after 37 years at the helm.

In September 2025, he became the second person ever worth more than $400 billion, thanks to an AI-driven boom in Oracle's stock price.

In 2012, he bought nearly all of the Hawaii island of Lanai for $300 million.

Ellison sat on Tesla's board from 2018 to 2022. He owned 45 million split-adjusted shares before stepping down as a director.

Ellison also owns nearly 50% of media giant Paramount Skydance, which formed after the nearly $28 billion (enterprise value) merger of Paramount and his son David's Skydance in August 2025.

About

Ellison never finished college. He started out building databases for the CIA.

Daughter Megan has financed films such as Zero Dark Thirty and American Hustle; son David produced mainstream movies like The Terminator and Mission: Impossible.
