History
The company was founded as Hakui Electronic Corporation in Hakui, Ishikawa, Japan, in 1968; it initially manufactured televisions. In March 1973, it became Nanao Corporation. In 1976, it began manufacture of industrial monitors, and in 1981 started making PC monitors.
Hitec Associates Ltd was founded in 1984 as a sales subsidiary of Nanao specifically for the European market.
In 1985, "Eizo" was launched as a brand of Hitec Associates in Europe. In the same period, parent company Nanao founded Nanao USA in the United States to launch products in that region under the "Nanao" brand as in Japan.
In January 1990, Hitec Associates Ltd was renamed Eizo Corporation.
In May 1990, the company moved its headquarters to Matt?, Ishikawa (now Hakusan).
In 1996, the "Eizo" brand replaced the "Nanao" brand in Japan and the United States, although Nanao remained the corporate name of the company in Japan. In the United States, Nanao USA was renamed Eizo Nanao Technologies
In 1997, Irem Software Engineering Inc. (a subsidiary company that replaces Irem Corporation) was founded.
In 1999, Nanao Corporation and Eizo Corporation merged to become Eizo Nanao Corporation, which in 2013 changed its name to simply Eizo Corporation.
