Evan Spiegel, CEO of Snap Inc., became the world's youngest billionaire at the age of 24 in 2015.

Spiegel launched the company with Bobby Murphy, a Stanford University fraternity brother, in 2011.
Spiegel and Murphy jointly own just over 20% of Snap but have special voting shares that give them control of the company.
Spiegel graduated from Stanford with a B.S. in product design in 2018, after dropping out to start Snapchat nearly seven years earlier.
