Take a look at the picture below. What you see is a seemingly ordinary rice cooker, but this humble appliance holds a special place in history. Taken in 1946, this photo captures the very first product commercialized by a company that would go on to become a global innovation powerhouse – Sony.
It was in 1957 that Sony truly made its mark with the launch of the pocket-sized transistor radio, a groundbreaking device that allowed people to enjoy music on-the-go. This was just the beginning of Sony’s incredible innovation adventure.
Throughout the 1960s, Sony continued to push boundaries, introducing the world’s first portable television set and later, the iconic Trinitron home TV with its revolutionary flat aperture grille.
But perhaps Sony’s biggest game-changer came in 1979 with the Walkman, a portable audio player that revolutionized the way we experienced music. An astonishing 400 million units were sold, cementing Sony’s status as a trailblazer in personal electronics.
The innovations kept coming, and in 1994, Sony released the PlayStation, a console that not only redefined gaming but also had a profound impact on the entire entertainment industry. It’s no wonder that even Steve Jobs, the visionary behind Apple, was a self-proclaimed admirer of Sony’s pioneering spirit.
