"Color Labs, Inc. was a start-up based in Palo Alto, California. Its main product was the eponymous mobile app for sharing photos through social networking. It allowed people to take photos in addition to viewing other photos also taken in the vicinity."

I wouldn't compare the venture in question at all to 'Color'...

You're missing the point. The only reason Color is even known is because its principal had name recognition before the venture was started.
