They Invented The Digital Camera. Then They Buried It.

In 1975, a young Kodak engineer built the world's first digital camera. He demonstrated it to his bosses. Their response: "That's cute, but don't tell anyone about it." It threatened everything Kodak's business was built on. Twenty years later, that decision helped bring down one of the most dominant companies in American history. This is the story of Kodak, and the invention it created, understood, and buried inside its own labs. #history #digitalcameras #businesshistory #theturningpoint
