Barco was founded in 1934 in the town of Poperinge, in the Flemish-speaking region of Belgium. Founder Lucien de Puydt's initial business was to assemble radios from parts imported from the United States-hence the name of his company, the Belgium American Radio Corporation, or "Barco."
Barco believe truly great engineering starts with a clear vision. A vision of a better, smarter, healthier world. They use technology to transform the quality of life: from improving health outcomes to changing the way people work and creating compelling experiences.
