A majority stake in the company founded in 1960 by the son of a Toronto-based plasterer has been recently given to two billionaires. One of them is Bill Gates. Who is the other and what is the company called?

I read that Bill Gates is purchasing a hotel chain with a Middle Eastern billionaire. I think it was Double Tree but I may have to check that twice. It just went down about two weeks ago tops.
Actually, just checked it, it was the Four Seasons. The Middle Eastern is Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Bin Abdulaziz Alsaud. Long name, I never understood the long name. It may be to be known in the world you really have to stand out. To stand out people have to remember your name and to remember a name that long you really have to stand out.
