Dietrich Mateschitz
The postwar decades in Austria produced a generation of business builders who would go on to shape consumer markets around the world. Dietrich Markwart Eberhart Mateschitz, born on May 20, 1944, in Sankt Marein im Mürztal, was among them.
An Austrian citizen, Mateschitz studied at the Vienna University of Economics and Business before going on to co-found Red Bull GmbH. He held a 49% ownership stake in the company and used the German language in his work as an entrepreneur. In April 2022, his net worth was estimated at US$27.4 billion, reflecting the scale of what Red Bull GmbH had become under his co-founding involvement.
Mateschitz died on October 22, 2022, in St. Wolfgang im Salzkammergut, at the age of 78. That net worth estimate, recorded just months before his death, stands as a concrete measure of the commercial enterprise he helped build over the course of his career.
