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”
“Culture” is a lifestyle that does not naturally accept or object to “reason.” The key is that you don’t pick “reason.” However, if someone asks “why?” to the passing-over phenomenon without any doubt, many things are revealed. Cultural products, organizational culture, art, community, and social matters kneel before this question. Ask yourself, “Why?”.
