Question B1

In 2002, Musk sold his second internet startup, PayPal, to eBay for $1.5 billion. His first company, a Web software firm, was acquired by Compaq. Currently, Musk is the CEO of Space Exploration Technologies (SpaceX) and Tesla Motors, and also the chairman and the largest shareholder of SolarCity, an energy technology company. SpaceX, which builds rockets for companies and countries to put satellites in space, was the first private company to deliver cargo to the International Space Station. It’s reigniting interest in space exploration. Tesla Motors is the world’s most prominent maker of electric cars and is proving that electric cars can be green, sexy, and profitable. SolarCity is now the leading provider of domestic solar panels in the United States. Each of these ventures has transformed an industry: PayPal – Internet payments; Tesla – automobiles; SpaceX – aeronautics; and SolarCity – energy.
