In its heyday Microsoft acted as a gatekeeper to the Internet. Its Internet Explorer browser had over 95% market share. Today the Internet is a different place, far more open and innovative, thanks in significant part to the efforts of Baker, who helped lead an army of tens of thousands of programmers and evangelists into battle. Netscape was sold to AOL in 1998. Its browser’s source code was made freely available to anyone who wanted to make improvements – a radically new idea at the time. The ultimate result was Firefox, a browser developed for the people by the people under the umbrella of what is now known as the Mozilla Foundation. When the Firefox browser was released there was no Apple and no Google standing in Microsoft’s way of control for this critical part of Internet life. There was only tiny Mozilla, led by Baker. “The technology we use has as much impact on our freedom as the laws do and on a day to day basis even more so,” says Baker, the 2009 winner of the prestigious Anita Borg Institute Women of Vision Award for Social Impact and the 2010 winner of the Aenne Burda Award for Creative Leadership. 5 EUROPEAN BUSINESS SCHOOLS BOARD READY WOMEN LIST WOMEN ON BOARDS TASK FORCE 7 MARCH 2012 RACHEL BALMADIER Rachel Balmadier She has about fifteen years experience in Risk Management framework and worldwide insurance programs (property, liability, auto) as well as in communication about risks with Board of Directors and shareholders (as requested by AMF, Financial Market Authority).
