A global phenomenon, employing more than 105,000 people across more than 60 countries, Philips bases its success on using innovation to deliver products that people truly want and need. These meaningful solutions inspire people to be healthy, live well and enjoy their lives. This powerful sense of social-conscience extends to finding solutions that address global societal challenges, while stimulating business growth, and those that reduce the evironmental impact of their operations.
History
Founded by Gerard Philips and his father Frederik in 1891, Philips began producing carbon-filament lamps and other electro-technical products from a factory in Eindhoven, in the Netherlands. By the 20s, the business had expanded their output to include items such as vacuum tubes, the 30s saw the evolution of a Philips radio with a built-in speaker, and in 1939 they introduced their first electric razor. Following the turmoil of World War II, Philips returned as innovative force - by 1949 it was selling the TV sets, introduced the Compact Audio Cassette tape in 1953, and the first video cassette recorder by 1972. Philips continue to innovative into the 21st century, with products that are optimised for the needs and desires of consumers.

Philips is committed to using innovation to improve the health of the world and its people.
