The computer scientist, Tim attended Emanuel School and even completed his A-Level from there. After that, he earned a first-class degree in Physics from Queen’s College, Oxford University. Having completed his education, he got a job in a printing company in Plessey Poole but later found a job at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland. His job was to share information among the researchers in different geographical location, and he proposed the hypertext project which could help people to share information electronically through the internet.

The world's first website used to run the server on the web server of NeXT computer at CERN, and the web address was “Info.cern.ch.”

Tim worked and designed the web throughout. He used the Web technology to get feedback from the users to make the World Wide Web better. The idea of URLs specification, HTTP, and HTML was discussed widely by the spread of Web technology. Tim said in the biography that all the technology for the development of the web such as ‘hypertext’ and ‘internet’ had already been created and he simply contributed to putting all of them together to develop the web.

To maintain and improve the quality of the World Wide Web, In 1994, Tim Berners-Lee founded W3C(World Wide Web Consortium) at Laboratory of Computer Science (LCS) AT Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Later in the year 2003, he merged LCS with Artificial Intelligence Lab and turned it into Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CASIL).

The director of the World Wide Web Consortium, Tim became the first holder of 3COM Founders chair at MIT in 1999. He also became the Professor in Computer Science Department at the University of Southampton, the UK in December 2004. As the co-director of Web Science Trust from 2006 to 2011, he established the multidisciplinary research body to examine the web.

He became the Board of Trustees of the Ford Foundation in the year 2011. He is even the president of the Open Data Institute of UK. He was one the first three recipients of the Mikhail Gorbachev Award for “The Man Who Changed the World.” The computer scientist, Tim has the net worth of $50 million. Tim was married to Nancy Carlson, his second marriage, and they had two children.  The marriage ended and he married for a third time Rosemary Leith who had three children by a previous marriage. Together, from previous marriages, they have 5 children.
