Eastman Kodak Company

Eastman Kodak Company, commonly known as Kodak, is an American technology company best known for its role in photography. Founded in 1888, Kodak popularized the use of film cameras and introduced the first flexible roll film, making photography accessible to the general public. Despite its dominance in the film industry for decades, Kodak struggled to adapt to the digital photography revolution in the late 20th century. The company filed for bankruptcy in 2012 but has since shifted its focus to digital imaging, printing technologies, and commercial solutions, aiming to revitalize its brand in a changing market.
