Is there an online tracker for what the successful competitive programmers are doing?

Hi coders,

I have always felt curious about how the IMO/IOI/Nutellas and all academic-successful people are doing in their life. What awesome things they have been contributing to the world? Or about the seemingly-impossible things they have overcome. Such as the story about someone who won the IOI in 2020 with a perfect score despite his own country effort to stop him. Or a certain IOI medalist ended up creating the world's best QA platform called Quora.

I am sure those stories will be very inspiring for the next generations of coders.

Do you happen to know any online tracker for that?

Update 1: I put the raw data here first. If there are many, I'll create a Wiki article for it.

Update 2: Wow, the Vietnamese CPers are great. Come on, everyone. Where are you? Is there no story from your country?

Some Companies created by successful CPers:

  • VK (RU) — worth billions $.

  • Telegram (RU) — worth billions $.

  • Ethereum (CH) — worth billions $.

  • Quora — worth billions $.

  • Pony.ai — worth billions $.

  • Near Protocol — worth billions $.

  • Sogou (CN) — worth billion $.

  • Axie Infinity (VN) — worth billion $.

  • Kyber Network (VN) — worth hundreds of millions $.

  • Lunchclub — worth hundreds of millions $.

  • Emerald Innovations — worth hundreds of millions $.

  • Forethought — worth hundreds of millions $.

  • Yugabyte — worth tens of millions $.

  • Abivin (VN).
