There are two types of corporations. One is a public corporation and the other one is a private corporation.

Public corporation have lots of shareholders and its shares are traded in the stock exchange. Microsoft, IBM, Sears, Starbucks are some of the largest public corporations.

Private corporation has only a few shareholders. The shares of the privately owned corporation are not traded in the stock exchange. The transfer of these shares are restricted because more often than not, the shareholders of a privately owned corporation are owner/operators.

To be one of the owners of a large corporation, all you have to do is to buy some share through a stock broker. You can control a large corporation if you have the money to acquire a large portion of its outstanding shares.
