Philips

Philips & Co was founded in 1891 in Eindhoven, the
Netherlands, by Frederik Philips and his son, Gerard. Recognizing the
opportunity presented by the mass-market introduction of electricity, and
inspired by Gerard’s keen interest in science and engineering, the pair soon
conceived a bold but timely plan: cost-effective, reliable electric
incandescent light bulbs

 Philips is more than a company name – it is a brand with a
purpose. This era marked a renewed, people-centric focus and the company’s
first fully comprehensive approach to creating a harmonized Philips brand
experience, delivering solutions that were advanced, easy to use, and designed
around the user

 Inspired by its purpose to improve people’s health and
well-being through meaningful innovation, Philips aims to improve the lives of
2.5 billion people per year by 2030. Today its growing portfolio of innovative
health technology solutions supports value-based care across the health
continuum.
