How Tech Companies Got their Names - II
After an overwhelming response to the first part, we are back again with yet another interesting article with tidbits on how some of the popular technology companies got their names.

Akai


The word "Akai" means the colour red in Japanese. As you may already know, Japan is widely known as the 'land of the rising sun', as it is the eastern-most country and the sun rises there first. The colour red is associated with that of the rising Sun as seen in the red round at the center of the Japanese flag. Akai was therefore named so to convey that it is very much a Japanese company.
