How the breakup of the Sony-Ericsson mobile joint venture was the best thing that happened to Sony
01/07/2011
For over a decade the Sony-Ericsson joint venture slowed decisionmaking and made it difficult to take advantage of Sony's technological capabilities. The end of the joint venture could not have come soon enough, and may have left the smartphone market o Apple and Samsung by default. The joint venture was started at a time when Nokia was the dominant mobile company. The smartphones from Apple changed everything and made speedy decisionmaking and use of companywide capabilities essential for success, something the joint venture was not designed to do. The Sony Experia Z is the first big product from the new Sony owned mobile business.

How Samsung jumped ahead of Sony in the smartphone market- the dismal failure of the Sony-Ericsson joint venture
01/07/2011
The glaring weaknesses of the Sony-Ericsson mobile joint venture was the slow decisionmaking and the inability to take advantage of Sony's strengths in manufacturing and its companywide technological capabilities. As late as 2011 Samsung was struggling behind other competitors. A key advantage was the quick decisionmaking and marshalling of resources within the company for the smartphone effort in Samsung. The joint venture proved to be a disaster for Sony.

Sony Stakes Recovery on New Smartphone
Wall Street Journal 03/01/2013
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
