Interesting facts:
Telefunken was founded in the 1920s by German companies Siemens and AEG. Telefunken's original focus was on high-frequency electrical transmissions for radio, leading it to be an important supplier to the broadcasting and television industry. In the mid-1990s however, Telefunken was offered for sale—the company was struggling and there was a genuine concern of having to dismiss thousands of employees. Vishay acquired Telefunken in 1998, kept the company's doors open, and Telefunken is still a part of the Vishay family of operations today. Today, we have over 5,000 people in Europe across 23 locations.
