Company Profile

Since the introduction of the first Philips light bulb more than 120 years ago, innovation and a people-centric approach have always been at the core of our company.

Our commitment is to deliver new healthcare and lighting technologies, as well as innovative and locally relevant consumer products that make a real difference to our customers, consumers and stakeholders across the globe. We believe that the best way for us to do this, is through deep understanding of people’s needs and desires.

When we bring the two together – people and innovation – we create the next generation of technology and things that people truly want and need. These are meaningful innovations that help people to be healthy, live well and enjoy life. This sets us apart and makes us Philips.

Philips has strengthened its leadership position in the fast-growing image-guided therapy market with the acquisition of Volcano. The new business received the CE Mark and US FDA clearance for its next generation iFR Scout measurement technology, further expanding its broad portfolio of imaging and measurement catheters for cardiovascular applications.
