Imation Corporation was an American company which manufactured and marketed data storage products. It was founded in 1996 as a spin-off of 3M's data storage and imaging business. Imation had three core elements: traditional storage, secure and scalable storage and what the company calls "audio and video information" products. In January 2017, the company announced a change of name and direction, completing its move away from the data storage business towards being focused on asset management and strategic investment and rebranding itself as GlassBridge Enterprises. The Imation brand was sold off later that year to O-Jin Corporation Co., a Korean company who have since licensed its use to other businesses, but retain ownership of it as of 2024. Wikipedia
