Hans Demant started the company that still bears his name as Oticon in 1904, after traveling to London for a hearing aid for his wife. Son William took the reins after Hans Demant’s death in 1910. Today, after a series of acquisitions, the company makes hearing aids, diagnostic instruments and personal communication devices via its core brands Bernafon, acquired in 1995, and, of course, Oticon.
