History of the company
Amazon was originally founded in 1994 by Jeff Bezos as Cadabra, Inc. It was developed as a result of what Bezos called his “Regret Minimization Framework,” a description of his efforts to avoid regrets over late participation in the Internet business boom of the mid-1990s.
Bezos left his position as vice president of D.E. Shaw & Co, a Wall Street investment firm, in 1994 and moved to Seattle to create the business plan for the company, which would initially be called Cadabra but became Amazon in 1995. Bezos decided to change the company name after a lawyer mistook the name Cadabra for “cadaver
In the early days of startup and planning, Bezos operated the company from his home on Northeast 28th St in Bellvue, Washington. In September 1994, he bought the domain name relentless.com with a short-lived plan to rename his online retail platform Relentless.
Close confidants, however, advised Bezos that the name might have a negative connotation. Bezos still owns the relentless.com domain, which redirects traffic to Amazon.com’s homepage.
