Etymology

The term 'corporatization' originated in the late 20th century as governments around the world began to restructure their state-owned enterprises to operate more like private corporations. This shift was driven by the belief that introducing market principles into previously government-controlled entities would lead to greater efficiency and competitiveness. Corporatization has since become a common strategy in various industries, including telecommunications, transportation, and energy.
