The story of Sysmex
Sysmex Corporation – in the beginning known as TOA Medical Electronics Co. – was established in 1968 in Kobe, Japan. But the story begins a littler earlier, in 1960, when Taro Nakatani, then-vice president of leading megaphone manufacturer TOA Electric Co., Ltd. (presently TOA Corporation), travelled to the United States in search of a new pillar of business.
