It depends on what you mean by a "captain of industry." The term generally applies specifically to John D. Rockefeller, J.P. Morgan, Andrew Carnegie, and others during their time. But you could certainly say that Bill Gates was a modern captain of industry in the sense that he helped pioneer the modern personal computing industry.
