SINCE ITS INCORPORATION IN 1892, GE has grown from a US company to a global company that operates in approximately 180 countries and happens to have its headquarters in the US. We have been active in countries like China for more than 100 years, and in 2015 approximately 55% of the company’s revenues came from outside the US. More than 60% of GE’s approximately 330,000 employees reside in countries other than the US.


Six years ago GE created its Global Growth Organization, led by John Rice, with three primary responsibilities:


1 2 3


Support GE businesses in local market expansion and growth


Help GE localize faster and become more locally competitive


Maximize the GE Store advantage in each region


GE has manufacturing facilities in more than 39 countries around the globe. This local manufacturing capability enables us to get closer to our customer’s markets while providing job opportunities to the local population.


Global Research Centers have been established by GE at 7 locations around the world, staffed by approximately 2,900 PhDs, scientists, and engineers. Each center specializes in core technologies while sharing their knowledge and expertise seamlessly. The focus of the research centers is positioning GE for the long-term, making the world a better place and partnering with our business teams who are serving our customers.
