Who We Are
The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) is a privately held, not-for-profit trade association founded in September 1998. The Bluetooth SIG itself does not make, manufacture, or sell Bluetooth enabled products. The SIG member companies are leaders in the telecommunications, computing, automotive, music, apparel, industrial automation, and network industries. SIG members drive development of Bluetooth wireless technology, and implement and market the technology in their products. The main tasks for the Bluetooth SIG are to publish Bluetooth specifications, administer the qualification program, protect the Bluetooth trademarks and evangelize Bluetooth wireless technology.
The Bluetooth SIG global headquarters are in Kirkland, Washington, USA and has local offices in Hong Kong, Beijing, China, Seoul, Korea, Minato-Ku, Tokyo, Taiwan and Malmo, Sweden.
The SIG staff is comprised of Executive Director Michael Foley, Ph.D., Chief Technical Officer, Andy Glass, Senior Director, Program Management Brandon Nott, Global Marketing Director Diana Hoffman and a growing staff of marketing, engineering, and operations professionals.
