Sector: Technology
Industry: Semiconductors
QUALCOMM Inc. is an American diversified corporation that develops and markets digital telecommunications products and services. It operates through the following segments: Qualcomm CDMA Technologies (QCT), Qualcomm Technology Licensing (QTL), and Qualcomm Strategic Initiatives. It is headquartered in San Diego, California, and incorporated in Delaware. It manufactures semiconductors and formulates software and services related to wireless technology. Qualcomm, Inc. was established in 1985 by Irwin M. Jacobs and six other co-founders. The company’s early strides into wireless cell phone technology were funded by selling a two-way mobile digital satellite communications system, known as Omnitracs. Qualcomm Inc. has since expanded into a major semiconductor and semiconductor component provider whose products and associated software are used extensively in vehicles, watches, laptops, smartphones, and other devices.
