General Electric

The General Electric Company (GE) is an American technology and services conglomerate founded in 1878 by Thomas Edison in Menlo Park, New Jersey, and currently based in Fairfield, Connecticut. The company sponsored several versions of Disney's Carousel of Progress attraction, first appearing at the 1964 New York World's Fair, and later moved to other Disney parks.

Interestingly, General Electric today owns the competing Universal Studios chain of theme parks and movie studio through its NBC Universal division.
