Gordon Moore and Robert Noyce, defectors from Fairchild Semiconductor, founded the chipmaker in 1968 and built Santa Clara into the heart of Silicon Valley. The company anchors the x86 ecosystem through Core client CPUs and Xeon server parts, while pushing into Gaudi AI accelerators, discrete GPUs, and Intel Foundry Services for outside customers. Pat Gelsinger resigned in December 2024 after foundry losses widened; Lip-Bu Tan took the helm in March 2025.
