Sonos, Inc. is a pioneering American audio technology company founded in August 2002 by John MacFarlane, Craig Shelburne, Tom Cullen, and Trung Mai in Santa Barbara, California, revolutionizing wireless multiroom audio systems with their original vision to 'Help music lovers play any song anywhere in their homes.' Founded by four entrepreneurs who leveraged the Internet as a programmable platform, declining computer component costs, and digital technology potential, the company launched their first product ZP100 in January 2005 to critical acclaim, with Walt Mossberg calling it 'easily the best music streaming product I have seen and tested.' Headquartered in Santa Barbara with global offices in Boston, Seattle, Paris, Shanghai, and beyond, Sonos went public in August 2018 trading on NASDAQ under SONO with current CEO Patrick Spence leading the company after John MacFarlane stepped down in January 2017. The company specializes in innovative wireless speakers and home sound systems featuring over 4,000 patented innovations, including smart speakers (Era 100, Era 300, Five), soundbars (Arc Ultra, Beam, Ray), portable speakers (Roam 2, Move 2), headphones (Sonos Ace), and home theater components (Sub 4, Sub Mini, Amp), all featuring proprietary Trueplay™ Tuning technology that adapts sound to room environments and professional tuning by Grammy and Oscar-awarded producers including Sound Experience Leader Giles Martin. The company's mission is to be a sound experience company making it easier for millions of listeners worldwide to play more, hear more, and feel more, emphasizing global inclusion and belonging through diverse teams focused on Product (ultimate listening experience), Go To Market (brand building), Operations (product realization), Technology (business efficiency), and People (collaborative teammate nurturing).
