About Us
Dyson is a global technology company with a unique philosophy - to solve problems that others ignore. It transforms every category it enters with radical and iconic re-inventions that work, perform and look very different. Today, Dyson offers products across a wide range of areas, including audio, floorcare, air purification, robotics, haircare (including formulations), lighting and hand drying. But it doesn’t stop there; Dyson continues to expand into new areas.
IP is vital to Dyson as it underpins the company’s commitment to innovation and competitive advantage. By protecting Dyson’s innovation and product design, IP ensures that Dyson’s significant investment in research and development is safeguarded from imitation and misuse. This protection enables Dyson to maintain its leadership in cutting-edge products, supports market growth, and fosters consumer trust in the originality and quality of Dyson products.
