In 1957, it produced a pocket-sized radio (the first to be fully transistorized), and in 1958, Morita and Ibuka decided to rename their company Sony (sonus is Latin for sound, and Sonny-boys the most common American expression). In 1949, the company developed magnetic recording tape and in 1950, sold the first tape recorder in Japan. Morita’s family invested in Sony during the early period and was the largest shareholder. On May 7, 1946, Morita and Ibuka founded Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo Kabushiki Kaisha (Tokyo Telecommunications Engineering Corporation, the forerunner of Sony Corporation) with about 20 employees and initial capital of ¥190,000. During his service, Morita met his future business partner Masaru Ibuka in the Navy’s Wartime Research Committee. He was later commissioned as a Lieutenant in the Imperial Japanese Navy, and served in World War II. Akio, however, found his true calling in mathematics and physics, and in 1944 he graduated from Osaka Imperial University with a degree in physics. He was the oldest of four siblings and his father Kyuzaemon trained him as a child to take over the family business. Morita’s family was involved in sake, miso and soy sauce production in the Chita Peninsula, Aichi Prefecture since 1665.
