Pantone: Color cannot be monopolized. However, Pantone earns money with this color. How could Pantone monopolize the color industry? The answer lies in a subtle difference: Pantone does not monopolize the color itself; it monopolizes its description. To reproduce a specific color, there must be criteria (classification and combination data) and a description. This is where Pantone’s unique approach comes in. Pantone developed the “Pantone Matching System (PMS, criteria)” and monopolized the description of how printing inks should be formulated to reproduce that color. The resolution was so systematic that it eventually became a global standard. As a result, if you cannot monopolize the essence, it is better to monopolize the additive factor. In this way, business, legally, is the act of strengthening monopoly power. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
We realize something while writing: we do not compose because we know. As we write down our problems, we instinctively understand what we know, what we don’t know, and what the main point is, which allows us to clarify precisely what it entails. Don’t just think; think as you write. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
