Paul Gower is the co-founder of Jagex, along with Ian and Andrew Gower.[1] In addition, he helped develop and program RuneScape since 1999 when he helped create an early version of the game. The Sunday Times Rich List 2007 ranked Paul and his brother Andrew Gower as the 654th richest entrepreneurs in the UK, worth £196 million.[2] They were awarded the Industry Legend prize at the 2010 Develop Awards.[3]
