Sony is a technology company, based in Japan, which makes many electric products. The company was created by Masaru Ibuka and Akio Morita in 1946 as a small company in Tokey employing only 20 employees. The company was damaged by the bombs in World War 2 but rebuilt its offices. 

The success story of Sony started when they started producing transistors, an invention that was already made in the US. but it wasn’t used in producing radios. The company produced its first transistor radio in 1954. The next milestone for the Japanise company would be the production of the Walkman in 1979, which is a cassette player that can fit into your pocket.   

In the following years, the company expanded its product lines into the consumer electronics industry, producing the first color TV, an electronic camera, and a CD player. In 1995, the Japanise tech giant released the PlayStation, a video game console that led Sony to be on the top of the videogames industry. 

In less than 50 years, Sony has transformed from a small company with 20 employees into a multinational company with more than 100,000 employees with different branches around the world.

Right now, the company is famous for many different products such as smartphones (Xperia), TVs and smart TVs, speakers and sound systems, headphones, cameras, as well as the PlayStation.
