Sir Berners-Lee’s biography

A graduate of Oxford University, Sir Tim invented the World Wide Web, an internet-based hypermedia initiative for global information sharing while at CERN, the European Particle Physics Laboratory, in 1989. He wrote the first Web client and server in 1990.

Sir Tim is the 3Com Founders Professor of Engineering at the Laboratory for Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence (CSAIL) at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

He is the Director of the World Wide Web Foundation, launched in 2009 to coordinate efforts to further the potential of the Web to benefit humanity and to defend the right to an affordable, universal and uncensored Web.
Tim is also the Director of World Wide Web Consortium, the standards setting body for the Web.

Sir Tim has promoted open government data globally and is Co-founder and President of the UK's Open Data Institute.

In 2004 he was knighted by H.M. Queen Elizabeth and in 2007 her Majesty awarded him the Order of Merit an honor held by only 12 living people. He is a member of the Royal Society and was named among Time Magazine's 100 most important people of the 20th Century.
