Decades of innovation<\/h3>\n
\n\t

Vaisala's origins date back to the\u00a01930s\u00a0when Professor Vilho V\u00e4is\u00e4l\u00e4, Vaisala's founder and long-time managing director, invented\u00a0some\u00a0of the operating principles of a radiosonde. The company was established\u00a0in 1936 in Finland, and the first radiosondes were manufactured\u00a0in the basement of a residential building\u00a0in\u00a0the center of Helsinki.\u00a0From a modest start, the company evolved to become a world leader in many measurement fields.<\/p>\n

Today Vaisala employs over 1,850 people and exports 98% of its production to over 150 countries. Curiosity, the desire\u00a0to meet challenges and an extraordinary ability to\u00a0innovate are at Vaisala's core, both past and p\u200bresent.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
