Toshiba History - Our Future Is Our Past
It all began in 1875 when Tanaka Engineering Works became a major supplier of telegraphy equipment used in long distance communications and quickly earned the reputation for innovation in developing technologies. Then in 1939, Tanaka Engineering Works merged with Tokyo Electric Company to form Toshiba Corporation, which would later become a leader and pioneer of some of the world's most significant technologies, and the brains and brawn behind more than 500 major technologies including telegraph equipment, MRI technology, air traffic control systems, semiconductors, flat panel displays, disk drives, business telephone systems, laptop computers, and digital imaging and document management solutions.
Toshiba is able to lead technology into the future because of a foundation resting on more than 125 years of inquiring, inventing and improving the way people live, work and play. And from this rich technological heritage stems a distinct advantage—every invention and product improvement at Toshiba starts from a place of extensive experience and knowledge, enabling us to think in new and innovative ways and continuously reshape the boundaries of technology.
When the history of technology is written, it is our intention to be included in every chapter.
Leading Innovation. It's not just a tagline; it's our corporate mantra. Join Toshiba as we continue to move the leading edge of technology forward—not only throughout the next 125 years, but for centuries to come.
