Elon Musk is one of the most powerful men in the world, but his personality remains complex

His arrivals resemble that of a rockstar, when Elon Musk arrives at his new factory in Texas. His presentation is one of all superlatives. Creator of thebusiness Space X now in partnership with NASA, Elon Musk is not just a simple business leader. “He wants to position himself as the reference of our era (…) what he wants is to obtain influence”specifies Dan Patterson, journalist specializing in new technologies.

No political ambition

Since his youth in South Africa, Elon Musk has touched all fields. He first launched an online bank. The company will merge with its competitor and become Paypal. Named personality of the year in 2021 by Time, the man also annoys. He discusses as equals with leaders from around the world, such as with the Ukrainian president. He also doesn’t hesitate to give his opinion on President Joe Biden. Elon Musk is above all a defender of total freedom and claims to have no political project.
