Hewlett-Packard, commonly known as HP, is an American multinational information technology company founded in 1939 by Bill Hewlett and David Packard in a garage in Palo Alto, California. Initially focused on electronic test and measurement equipment, HP evolved into a major player in the development of computing, data storage, and networking hardware, as well as software and related services. The company became well-known for its wide range of products, including personal computers, printers, and enterprise solutions. HP was the world's leading PC manufacturer from 2007 until 2013 when it was overtaken by Lenovo.2

In 2015, HP split into two separate entities: HP Inc., which focuses on personal computers and printers, and Hewlett Packard Enterprise, which provides enterprise products and services.2 As of recent reports, HP Inc. has shown signs of recovery in its PC sales after a prolonged downturn, with quarterly revenue reaching $8.43 billion in the fiscal second quarter of 2024—an increase attributed primarily to commercial sales growth.1
