Virtual-reality company Oculus was acquired by Facebook in March 2014 for $2 billion. Since then, founder Palmer Luckey and CEO Brendan Iribe have had a busy year. Oculus revealed its final Oculus Rift headset, announced a partnership with Microsoft, and announced that the Oculus Rift headset will finally be available in the first quarter of next year.

Last year, Iribe announced that he was donating $31 million to the University of Maryland. As a result of the Facebook deal, Luckey’s net worth is more than $500 million.
