GE is the only company included on the original Dow Jones Industrial Index in 1896 that is still listed today…a testament in large part to our history of innovation. From lighting and health care to aviation and energy, we have a long, proud history of churning out new inventions and breakthroughs that have transformed how people live.
GE is known for many things: world-changing innovation, global scope, unyielding integrity, financial stability and reliable growth, among others. But most of all, we’re known for hiring exceptional people and giving them unparalleled opportunities to build their careers and capabilities. There is simply no other company in the world with such a diverse a set of businesses in which to work, and such a development-focused culture in which to grow.
GE has a rich history of innovation, starting with Edison’s ductile tungsten filaments for the first practical lightbulb Most of these innovations were Imagination Breakthroughs in their day Many, such as the lightbulb, medical x-ray, jet engines, Lexan, have grown into multi-billion dollar businesses And some, like MRI, have taken existing technology and incorporated new technology push the limits of performance and capabilities to even greater heights. GRC developed enabling technology that led to the introduction of the first clinically viable high field MRI scanner. GRC also has had two Nobel Prize winners: Langmuir and Giaever
It started in a barn. In 1900, the General Electric Company was only eight years old. The hottest technology of the day was electricity. GE’s chief consulting engineer, Charles Proteus Steinmetz, a reknowned industrial scientist of his time and a contemporary of Thomas Edison, convinced the GE leadership that if the company were to maintain its edge in lighting and electricity, and find new areas to grow, they would need a research laboratory. Charles Coffin, GE's first CEO, agreed and the first industrial research lab in the US was born in the carriage barn in Steinmetz's backyard. Steinmetz then persuaded Willis Whitney, a young chemistry professor from MIT who had been conducting experiments for GE, to become the first director of the GE Research Laboratory. Elihu Thomson, a founder of the company, summed up the mission of the lab: “It does seem to me therefore that a Company as large as the General Electric Company, should not fail to continue investing and developing in new fields: there should, in fact, be a research laboratory for commercial applications of new principles, and even for the discovery of those principles. One of the earliest projects of the new lab was to defend the company's primary asset – incandescent lighting – through innovation. In 1908, GE scientist William Coolidge invented the ductile tungsten filament that made the GE incandescent lamp significantly more durable than the original design. It was an invention that secured GE's technological leadership in the market and epitomizes the role of the GE research lab – bringing innovation to the marketplace. The Research Lab has expanded considerably since then, but our mission remains the same – bringing great technology to the marketplace.
Global Research is truly a global enterprise. We have four global sites and a fifth under development in Qatar; global teams working on global technologies. Having a global presence like this enables us to access the best and brightest talent from all over the world. It also enables us to have a keen understanding of the technology needs and drivers in the key markets where GE is doing business. It’s about bringing technology closer to our businesses and to the regions of the world where we are competing.
If you look at the examples in the previous slide…they were across different GE businesses… All of those we made possible by engineers here. The reason why we are successful….mini GE…almost all disciplines…This is a great way to share knowledge, domain expertise across different businesses and product lines We are however based on a center of excellence model…ensuring minimal duplication of skills…might have small overlaps
So what high risk, big impact programs should we explore. Consider the tech diversity of GE, that’s not a trivial question. So first question – where’s the money now? Where is Jeff Immelt– pretty good guy- investing his money.
