Epson is celebrating 50 years since the company brought miniaturized printing to the world for the first time at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. The printing timer became the first electronic recording system in the Olympics, changing the course of history.

Twenty-five years later, Epson’s 3LCD technology revolutionized the projector market, delivering “vibrant and clear” images to the most demanding audiences, and “turning Epson into the world’s leader in projection, a position it has held since 2001.”

Epson prides itself in being a global technology innovator. This has been recognized in the shape of the many awards the company has received.

Epson was acknowledged at the Thomson Reuters 2013 Top 100 Global Innovator Awards in Japan. Other awards include the IEEE Corporate Innovation Recognition Award, numerous EISA and TIPA awards for imaging products and the BLI Pick of the Year 2014 for the WorkForce DS-860.
