Quick Answer
Fujitsu was founded by Furukawa Electric, Siemens & Halske in 1935 in Tokyo, Japan. The company is currently led by Takahito Tokita.
Fujitsu traces its roots to Fuji Telecommunications Equipment Manufacturing, established in 1935 through the Furukawa industrial group and Siemens' Japanese technology heritage. The company began with telecommunications equipment, then expanded into computers, enterprise systems, semiconductors, infrastructure, and IT services. That history matters because Fujitsu's modern business is still tied to mission-critical systems: banks, governments, enterprises, and infrastructure customers that need reliability, integration, and long-term service. Under Takahito Tokita, Fujitsu has pushed the company toward Uvance, cloud, AI, cybersecurity, and higher-value digital services while reducing the weight of legacy hardware identity.
Furukawa Electric and the wider Furukawa industrial group helped establish the company that became Fujitsu.
Furukawa's role in Fujitsu's origin connects the company to Japan's industrial and telecommunications modernization.
Siemens' technology partnership was part of Fujitsu's early telecommunications equipment foundation.
The Siemens connection gave the young company a telecommunications technology base before Fujitsu expanded into computing and IT services.
