The Atlassian founders have done a remarkable job of holding on to their large founder positions (17 years in). Together they still own about 54% of the value of the company post IPO.
Warren Buffett had over 25% of Berkshire Hathaway after roughly 43 years, until he began liquidating to give it away.
Michael Dell now owns 52% of the publicly traded Dell. That had been reduced to about 14% during the company's last term as a public entity (circa 2013), prior to the move to take it private. Through very clever maneuvering he now majority controls the public conglomerate of Dell + EMC + VMWare.
Another one is Larry Ellison, who still holds 30% of Oracle after 41 years.
