HP - The Creator of Silicon Valley
HP Inc. and HP Enterprise, formerly known as Hewlett-Packard Company, are two split companies that once operated under the same name. In 2015, the company was divided so that HP Inc. focuses on producing PCs, peripherals, and printers, while HPE focuses on software and services, networking, storage, and servers.
HP is known as the first tech company in Palo Alto and is seen as the reason why Silicon Valley became a desirable area for tech companies to settle. HP is thus considered the founder of this now-famous area.
