The list of signatories includes many prominent figures in technology, including Apple CEO Tim Cook, Amazon founder and executive chair Jeff Bezos, Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai, Microsoft cofounder Bill Gates, and Meta founder, chairman, and CEO Mark Zuckerberg.<\/p>\n \u201cThe undersigned commit our support by collectively creating employment opportunities for computer science students in every city in the USA, and in every sector, from manufacturing to banking, from agriculture to healthcare,\u201d the letter reads. \u201cMany of us offer internships to help these students find their career pathway. Many of us have funded efforts in CS education, to support underserved communities.

I hope this initiative will give every student the same opportunity.\u201d<\/p>\n When I was 13, computer science changed the course of my life.
