Celebrating 25 Years: “We’re Just Getting Started”
Since Impinj was founded in 2000, it has grown to become a leader in the RAIN RFID industry, delivering tools and technology to connect every thing.
This year, Impinj proudly celebrates 25 years of innovation, growth, and transformation — a journey that began with a big question: What if we could connect every item in the world? From that lofty goal in 2000, Impinj has grown into a global leader in RAIN RFID, helping companies harness the power of item-level connectivity to drive intelligence, efficiency, and sustainability.
Impinj has become a key part of an industry that tags more than a billion items every week, enabling businesses across the globe to track their products throughout their entire lifecycles. From manufacturing lines to store shelves to the hands of consumers, tiny Impinj chips enable powerful insights, helping organizations reduce waste, streamline operations, and create sustainable systems.
At the core: Trust and curiosity
Impinj is built on more than technology. It’s built on trust — among fellow employees, with partners, and with customers. From that trust comes the teamwork needed to solve real-world problems; the driving force behind Impinj’s culture. The team of more than 450 employees — in offices around the world — has cultivated a workplace community where learning, collaboration, and innovation flourish.
“For 25 years, what drove most — if not all — our innovation was our curiosity,” said Alberto Pesavento, Impinj’s chief technology officer. “(We ask,) ‘What if?’ What if this idea could be true? What if we could actually do this?” With this relentless thirst for knowledge and a fearless drive to learn more, “I can only imagine what the next 25 years will bring us.”
Leading the future of IoT
Impinj is at the forefront of new technologies such as embedded tags and mobile consumer engagement, which promise to unlock entirely new experiences and support a global effort towards greater sustainability. With landmark technologies such as the flagship Impinj M800 series tag chip — which this year surpassed a lifetime shipment volume of 5 billion units — and the industry-changing Impinj Gen2X solutions toolbox, Impinj is not just keeping pace with the future; Impinj is building it.
And in the words of Impinj Co-founder and CEO Chris Diorio:
“We’re just getting started.”
