Forbes has been tracking billionaires worldwide since 1987, initially identifying 140 in that first year. It took two decades for their numbers to surpass 1,000, and by 2017, there were 2,000.

Now, eight years later, the number has reached 3,028 entrepreneurs, investors, and heirs, marking an increase of 247 from the previous year.
