What is the name of Tony Stark's company?

The story behind the answer

Tony Stark’s company is Stark Industries. It is the technology and defense corporation associated with Tony Stark, the billionaire inventor who operates as Iron Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

In the MCU, Stark Industries was founded by Tony’s father, Howard Stark. Tony inherited and later ran the company, which manufactured advanced weapons before Tony changed direction after witnessing the human cost of his technology. The company’s work eventually included the development of Iron Man armor and other sophisticated equipment.

A common mix-up is confusing Stark Industries with Stark Tower, which is a building and later an Avengers headquarters rather than the company itself. Stark Industries also differs from fictional companies such as LexCorp, Wayne Enterprises, and Oscorp, which belong to DC or other Marvel storylines.

In Marvel Comics, the business has used several related names over time, including Stark International, Stark Enterprises, and Stark Resilient. However, “Stark Industries” is the canonical answer for this question and is the name most directly associated with Tony Stark’s company.
