Elon Musk Is the Winner of Entrepreneur Bracket Madness Why the 'real-life Iron Man' beat out Tony Stark, Jeff Bezos, Henry Ford and others to claim the title of best entrepreneur ever.
In the midst of March Madness, we created our own bracket of the 64 best living, historical and fictional entrepreneurs ever. Now, after three weeks of voting, you've picked your favorite entrepreneur of all time: Elon Musk. And while there were plenty of great contenders in our bracket -- from Vito Corleone to Jeff Bezos to runner up Henry Ford -- it makes sense that the Tesla and SpaceX founder is the last entrepreneur standing.
Musk's brand has never been more popular. Tesla recently surpassed GM to become the most valuable company in America. SpaceX is planning to launch a revolutionary rocket this summer. Even Musk's tweets of farting unicorns are now big news.
He's one of the wealthiest and most powerful people on the planet, and he's only 45 years old. Who knows what he'll come up with next.
