Bill Gates addressed the Institute of Directors in London this week in what is likely to be his final UK appearance as Microsoft chairman before he moves to a part-time role with the company this summer.

He discussed everything from the future of technology to politics, as well as his upcoming plans and the charitable work of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
