30th Anniversary Commemoration

On Oct. 2, 1981, Daniel Borel, Pierluigi Zappacosta and Giacomo Marini founded Logitech S.A., and opened the company´s first office in the small village of Apples, Switzerland. The first business deal was to develop a graphical editor for Ricoh. Because of the founders´ software background, they chose the name Logitech, which comes from the French word for software: “logiciel.” Thirty years later, Logitech has more than 9,000 employees around the world. The company has sold more than a billion mice, and its product lines include a wide range of PC peripherals, tablet accessories, earphones and speakers for listening digital music, and video conferencing solutions.
