When asking what type of company is company X the answer should be the same as "In 1 or 2 words, what do they produce and sell"?

The problem is that "tech company" has become a complement and inversely not being able to call yourself one implies you are behind the times. But in reality, just about every company would fail in a meaningful way if their technology no longer functioned. Its difficult for me to think of a business that wouldn't falter without their technology functioning.
