Business Description

Sony Group Corporation reports in six segments: Game & Network Services, built on the PlayStation platform; Music, one of the three global recorded-music majors; Pictures, the Columbia and Sony Pictures Television studios; Entertainment, Technology & Services, covering televisions, cameras and audio; Imaging & Sensing Solutions, the world's leading supplier of CMOS image sensors for smartphones; and Financial Services.

The shift from hardware to content and recurring revenue is the defining story of the past decade, with PlayStation Network subscriptions, music streaming royalties and sensor supply to Apple among the largest profit pools. Founded in 1946 as Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo, the company renamed itself Sony in 1958 and became Sony Group Corporation in 2021.
