ABB

ABB was founded as ASEA (Allmänna Svenska Elektriska Aktiebolaget) in 1883. It was a leading Swedish electrical company for some 100 years, until its merger with Brown, Boveri & Cie (BBC), which was a conglomerate of Swiss electrical firms founded in 1891. The Swedish-Swiss company ASEA Brown Boveri is today known worldwide as ABB, a multinational corporation that ships more than a million products a day. It has four main production divisions, including Industrial Automation, and a corporate headquarters in Zurich.
