Philips Electronics – Sense and Simplicity.

Philips, one of the world’s largest electronics suppliers, was founded in 1891 in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. Starting with light bulbs, Philips introduced an electric razor in 1939 marketed as Norelco in the United States. In 1963, Philips introduced the compact audio cassette with phenomenal success. Later, in 1982, Philips developed the compact disc in collaboration with Sony. This move cemented Philips as an industry trendsetter and trailblazer. Today, Philips manufacturers consumer electronic products including digital picture frames, portable DVD players and home audio equipment.

Not being a company to stand still, Philips has a vested interest in sports. Originally as a way to encourage a healthy lifestyle for its employees, Philips sponsors numerous sports teams, leagues, events and venues worldwide such as the FIFA World Cup and the Philips Arena in Atlanta, Georgia. Philips believes that in order to be successful in business and in life, one has to properly balance their lifestyle and pursue growth and learning.
