Agilent's pioneering spirit was kindled more than 60 years ago, when two engineers - Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard - invented the future in their garage.

In 1999, Agilent was spun off from Hewlett-Packard Company, and we have continued to support the values so important to the two visionary founders.

While, physically, we have outgrown HP's garage, we continue to live the values handed down from Bill and Dave: uncompromising integrity: trust, respect and teamwork: and innovation that makes a difference.
