      150 Years of Innovation

      In 1873, the founders of Atlas Copco named their company after the Titan in Greek mythology who holds up the heavens for eternity. Today, everyone at the Atlas Copco Group stands on the shoulders of giants. They build on the work of all those passionate people who went before and paved the way for the Group's success. Few companies reach 150 years - and none do it without constantly reinventing themselves. Since 1873, the Atlas Copco Group has stayed at the forefront of development, never afraid to question old ways - because there is always a better way, as the Group credo says. This book shares the stories of all these people, their decisions and milestones, and how they managed to always stay close to their customers and develop new innovations that benefited both customers and society at large.
