Samsung may be one of the world’s biggest technology conglomerates today, but the company’s business activities were not even remotely associated with technology when it was founded. Samsung, which means three stars in Korean, was founded in 1938 by Byung-Chull Lee. Based in Korea, the company started out selling dried local fish to China. In the next couple of decades, many other subsidiaries were born, including Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance, and Samsung Life Insurance. It wasn’t until 1969 that Samsung entered the electronics industry.
