Haji Zeynal Abdin Taghiyev built a career in business at a period when the rules of commerce were themselves changing.
The record lists Haji Zeynal Abdin Taghiyev as Azerbaijani businessman (1823-1924).
Haji Zeynal Abdin Taghiyev was born at Baku in 1838. His recorded nationality is Azerbaijan Democratic Republic.
Industrialisation changed the scale of everything: factories, railways, joint-stock capital and the first modern corporations.
He worked as businessperson, entrepreneur and industrialist.
His recorded holdings include Palace of Zeynalabdin Taghiyev, Theatre of Taghiyev and Empress Alexandra Russian Muslim Boarding School for Girls.
Enterprises outlive their founders or they do not, and that is the whole test.
Recognition followed: Order of noble Bukhara, Medal In memory of coronation of Alexander III, Order of the Lion and the Sun First class and Commander of the Order of the Lion and the Sun.
That the business was built from Azerbaijan Democratic Republic shaped it: capital, regulation and market size differ by country, and they decide what is even attemptable.
Haji Zeynal Abdin Taghiyev died in 1924, aged 86. What remains is the enterprise and its consequences, which is the only durable measure of a commercial life.
