In the United States, many people are familiar with the name of Andrew Carnegie because of his work with establishing libraries across the country. He often called on the rich to use their wealth for the betterment of society and Carnegie had a lot of wealth. In modern valuation, he was worth nearly $300 billion. The reason why he was so wealthy was because he was able to turn the steel industry into something that could transform the United States. What Did Andrew Carnegie Invent? Carnegie really didn’t invent anything, which is why his success story is one that deserves to be told. Instead of focusing on new products, Carnegie took a look at the best practices that were employed around the world and then adapted those processes into his own business. He was willing to always look at something new because it could add to the profitability of his business venture, improve his product, or give the product a new shape. It would be fair to say that Carnegie invented the American Steel Industry, but the actual processes that he used in this industry he brought over from Europe and other places around the world. The most influential place he toured was when he was in England in 1872.
