Monsanto Founded in 1901 by John Francis Queeny, by the 1940s Monsanto was a major producer of plastics, including polystyrene and synthetic fibers. Notable achievements by Monsanto and its scientists as a chemical company included breakthrough research on catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation and being the first company to mass-produce light emitting diodes (LEDs). The company also formerly manufactured controversial products such as the insecticide DDT, PCBs, Agent Orange, and recombinant bovine somatotropin (a.k.a. bovine growth hormone). Monsanto was among the first to genetically modify a plant cell, along with three academic teams, which was announced in 1983,[9] and was among the first to conduct field trials of genetically modified crops, which it did in 1987. It remained one of the top 10 U.S. chemical companies until it divested most of its chemical businesses between 1997 and 2002, through a process of mergers and spin-offs that focused the company on biotechnology.

Google American multinational technology company Google was founded on September 4, 1998, by American computer scientists Larry Page and Sergey Brin while they were PhD students at Stanford University in California. Together, they own about 14% of its publicly listed shares and control 56% of its stockholder voting power through super-voting stock. The company went public via an initial public offering (IPO) in 2004. Google and YouTube are the two most-visited websites worldwide followed by Facebook and X (formerly known as Twitter). History Early years Page and Brin originally nicknamed the new search engine "BackRub", because the system checked backlinks to estimate the importance of a site.[21][31][32] Hassan as well as Alan Steremberg were cited by Page and Brin as being critical to the development of Google. Google was initially funded by an August 1998 investment of $100,000 from Andy Bechtolsheim,[21] co-founder of Sun Microsystems. Growth Initial public offering 2012 onwards Search engine

Google trots op Nederlanse belastingroute Redactie Follow the Money Google is “trots” op de belastingontwijking van het bedrijf via Nederland. Dat heet “kapitalisme”, zegt ceo Eric Schmidt. Google heeft lak aan de toenemende maatschappelijke verontwaardiging over belastingontwijking. Het ging vorig jaar om bijna 10 miljard dollar aan niet-Amerikaanse omzet. Dankzij de truc halveert Google zijn totale belastingaanslag. Hiermee kiest Schmidt voor een heel ander geluid dan de Amerikaanse koffieketen Starbucks, dat vooral in Groot-Britannië onder vuur ligt. Ook in Nederland stijgt de oppositie tegen het belastingparadijs, dat multinationals zo veel geld oplevert. Maar voorlopig komt er geen verandering in de Nederlandse wet, denkt Rodrigo, omdat Financiën op de hand is van de multinationals en de trustsector die van de constructie profiteert. Lees hier meer over de Nederlandse belastingroute van voormalig presidentskandidaat Mitt Romney.
