Triumph is one of the [[LK Links]]-selectable brand names in the CPC BIOS, allowing to display the boot message '''Triumph 64K Microcomputer''' on power up. Amstrad apparently planned a partnership with a company with that name. Which company this could have been is a riddle.
'''Triumph Internation Underwear''' is possibly the most popular company that uses Triumph as brand name. It Though it is rather doubtworthy that Amstrad seriously planned this partnership.

The Triumph brand name is also used by several '''bicycle, motorcycle, and automobile''' manufacturers. Unlikely that Amstrad planned partnerships here, too.There was also a '''Triumph Records''' company. Triumph is also a '''canadian hard rock''' band.

Triumph is also a canadian hard rock band.
There is also an Triumph Electronics company in USA, though according to their About Us page, ''Triumph Electronics incorporated in 2007'' (thus it can't have anything to do with the CPC), interstingly, they say ''We stand out from the crowd by our professionalism'' (though as by 2010, the About Us page still doesn't work yet with Opera, nor mainstream browsers like Firefox or Internet Explorer).
