Corporate Connections
February 11th, 2008 | by Nathan |I am a big fan of these types of infographics (plenty can be found at Cool Infographics).
I’m referring to the type that give me a 10,000 ft view of the interconnectedness of complex networks.
What is the connection between 3 celebrities, 35 corporations, 40 subsidiaries and more than 300 brands? Global business interests make up a complex network of connections between corporations from around the world. Corporate Connection, intends to shed light on ‘who owns what’ in the lobal marketplace and on the intricate nature of the world wide “business” web.
Also, check out my other post if you’re interested in Who Owns Who in the Car Industry?
I spend most of my day concentrating on the ‘important’ things in my world, a very narrow view if you ask me…. and I appreciate anything that brings my thoughts to a new altitude… helping to remind me that there’s so much more out there… and things are so much bigger than i had realized - like corporate connections!
UPDATE: I found this map pertaining to the break up of AT&T and the subsequent creation of phone companies…
