Mike Lynch, the founder of Autonomy Corporation, has tragically died after his yacht sank during a violent storm off the coast of Sicily, confirming the deep loss of a tech visionary.
Lynch's body was recovered with reports stating he was among six individuals missing after the British-flagged sailing boat capsized during a tornado at sea.
Lynch spent the past decade fighting allegations of fraud over the sale of Autonomy to HP, only to celebrate his recent acquittal with a boat trip that ended in tragedy.
Lord Browne highlighted Lynch's significant impact on the tech landscape, mentioning how he epitomized a new breed of deep tech entrepreneurs in the UK, contributing greatly to science and technology.
