Was there a link between Intel and Bell Labs?
William Shockley founded Shockley semiconductors. Eight researchers working there, known as the "traitorous eight" left to form Fairchild Semiconductor. Engineers at Fairchild are responsible for many key innovations in semiconductor manufacturing processes.
Gordon Moore, head of R&D at Fairchild left to form Intel in 1968.
... So you could say that Bell Labs indirectly birthed Intel :)
