Fun with History

[MuGen]

Sony began in 1945 under Masaru Ibuka in the war-damaged city of Tokyo. In a small, pitiful building a few employees began repairing radios, and brainstorming for new tools people could use. The first new invention to come from the company, then known as Tokyo Tsushin Kenkyujo or Tokyo Telecommunications Research Institute, was a rice cooker. From there, over the next several years, the company continued to grow. They made such things as electrically heated cushions and radios. The company changed names and moved several times before finally becoming Sony in January of 1958. By then, they had diversified to make many different electronics such as radios, tvs, and voice recorders. Since then, Sony has grown exponentially diversifying into nearly every aspect of telecommunications industry. This is just a chip off of the block of Sony's history.

I will be posting history about other companies.
