Logitech

Logitech is a Swiss-American maker of computer peripherals and software, founded in 1981 in Lausanne by Daniel Borel, Pierluigi Zappacosta and Giacomo Marini and still headquartered there, with a second centre of gravity in Silicon Valley. The range runs from mice and keyboards to webcams, headsets, gaming hardware under Logitech G and video conferencing systems.

Design has become the company’s public argument: Logitech Design, the in-house team led by chief design officer Alastair Curtis, was named Red Dot Design Team of the Year in 2023, with studios in Lausanne and Cork. The approach favours quiet, ergonomic objects such as the MX Master mice and the Ergo keyboard, and reaches into education, where the company worked with Umeå Institute of Design graduate Pierre Brand on Bloom, multisensory literacy tools for children with dyslexia.
