ABSTRACT
The history of home entertainment consumer electronics begins in May 7, 1946, with the founding of Tokyo Tsushin Kogyou (Tokyo Telecommunication Engineering) by Masaru Ibuka (36) and Akio Monta (25) in Tokyo, Japan. Had these two bright young men not met and combined their considerable resolve and talents, the home electronics business would not have accelerated so much as we see it today, and our semiconductor business efforts would have been aimed only for military purposes for a while.
