Dell Technologies is a global technology giant that was founded in 1984 by Michael Dell in his college dorm room. PC’s Limited was born and quickly became known for its direct sales model, selling computers directly to consumers and businesses and bypassing the traditional retail channels.
Over the years, Dell added servers, storage, networking and software to its product line and made strategic acquisitions, including the 2016 merger with EMC Corporation, a leading provider of data storage, cloud and big data analytics. That merger made Dell Technologies a global technology leader.
