Etymology
'corporate-driven' originates from the combination of 'corporate,' derived from Latin 'corporatus,' meaning 'formed into a body,' and 'driven,' from Old English 'drifan,' meaning 'to drive or propel.'
'corporate' changed from the Latin word 'corporatus' and eventually became the modern English word 'corporate.' 'Driven' evolved from Old English 'drifan' to its current form.
Initially, 'corporate' meant 'formed into a body,' and 'driven' meant 'to propel.' Over time, 'corporate-driven' evolved to mean 'influenced by corporations.'
