In the history of enterprise, Alexander von Stieglitz is one of the names that keeps returning.
The record lists Alexander von Stieglitz as Russian banker and philanthropist (1814-1884).
Alexander von Stieglitz was born at Saint Petersburg in 1814. His recorded nationality is Russia. He was educated at Imperial University of Dorpat.
Industrialisation changed the scale of everything: factories, railways, joint-stock capital and the first modern corporations.
He worked as banker, financier and industrialist.
Business reputations are unusually sensitive to the decade in which they were made.
Recognition followed: Order of Saint Anna, 1st class, Order of Saint Anna, 2nd class, Order of the White Eagle and Order of Saint Stanislaus, 1st class.
That the business was built from Russia shaped it: capital, regulation and market size differ by country, and they decide what is even attemptable.
Alexander von Stieglitz died in 1884, aged 70. What remains is the enterprise and its consequences, which is the only durable measure of a commercial life.
