Before Trolltech was called Trolltech[*], it was called Troll Tech. Before
that, for a couple of days, it was named Quasar Technologies, which was the
initial name.
As you can tell from the initial name, Qt actually predates the company. It
started during Eirik Chambe-Eng and Haavard Nord's master thesis. If you read
one intermediate report of Eirik which I've had the chance to see, you can
already see QObject, QMainWindow, etc.
The only difference from that code snippet to current Qt 5 is the lack of
QApplication::setMainWidget (still found in Qt 3:

[*] The legal name also changed from Trolltech AS to Trolltech ASA when the
company went public in the Oslo stock exchange.
