  • Dado Banatao Success Story
    Dado Banatao Success Story I was reading GoNegosyo and I read about the life story of Dado Banatao. He was considered as the Filipino version of Bill Gates since both came up from a technical background, introduced technologies that transformed the computer industry, and built large successful companies from the ground up. I was really amazed on how far Dado already went in pursuing his dreams especially knowing his roots. And as such, he was the featured story for today in the rags to riches entrepreneur section of this blog. I hope you would find another inspiring success story. Dado Banatao was born on May 23, 1946 to a rice farmer and housekeeper where he grew up in a little barrio named Malabhac in the farming town of Iguig in Cagayan Valley Province. When he was a kid, Banatao used to walk barefoot to school along the dirt roads. He then went to Ateneo de Tuguegarao and at 15 pursued college education at Mapua Institute of Technology where he graduated cum laude with an Electrical Engineering degree. Dado was then offered a job after graduation at Meralco but then he turned down the offer after knowing the starting salary. He instead applied as a pilot trainee at Philippine Airlines, which paid much more. Little did he know that a turning point of his career will come when Boeing pirated him as a design engineer and brought him to US.He then enjoyed engineering and later on pursued further studies taking a Masters in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at Stanford University, which he completed in 1972 to be trained properly on his craft.

  • Oral History of Dado Banatao
    Oral History of Diosdado “Dado” Banatao Interviewed by: Uday Kapoor Recorded: August 15, 2013 Mountain View, California CHM Reference number: X6807.2013 © 2013 Computer History Museum Oral History of Diosdado “Dado” Banatao Kapoor: Hello, Dado Banatao. Welcome to the Computer History Museum. We are privileged to have you here today. I'm Uday Kapoor. We have been together for close to 36 years, so it's a pleasure to talk to you. Your name is Diosdado Banatao, and I remember many years ago you explained that it means "God given." Banatao: God given. Kapoor: So you use Dado. Banatao: Thank you. Kapoor: You were born May 23rd, 1946, in a town called Iguig in Cagayan province in Philippines. I'm probably not pronouncing it well. Banatao: The first one, Iguig is the pronunciation. Kapoor: I know it was a small place, and your father was a farmer and your mom was a housekeeper, and so you came from humble beginnings. Banatao: Very humble. Kapoor: I would like to let you talk about that period yourself. Banatao: Sure. Well, my family, as you know already, is a very humble family. My father was a farmer, as you know, and the whole town is a farming town. So you can imagine a place that is fairly quiet and sparsely populated of course because the farm is next to the community itself, and so there are not a lot of resources. The families were all similar in their, I would say, quality of life, capability financially, access to things or no access to luxury at all.
