In 2024 we celebrate 电话este’s 70th anniversary!

电话este has been providing equipment and technologies for video networks since 1954 and it is listed on Nasdaq Helsinki since 1999.

The company was founded on two principles: customer understanding and quality, and we have been well known for tenacious Finnish engineering skills from the very beginning. As our customers’ needs, technologies and the world around have changed, so have we. Here you can take a sneak peek into some of the steps from alongside our journey.
