1930s Ericsson’s first speakerphone is designed in the decade.[2]
1950s Transistor technology is introduced, and new prerequisites are created for developing a more functional speakerphone.[2]
1960s Ericsson seeks for international expansion, and takes active steps to set up manufacturing subsidiaries in other countries.

1990s Ericsson leads the advancement of telecommunication technologies, expanding its business, and maintaining its dominant position in the rapidly expanding mobile infrastructure market. By 1999, Ericsson holds the majority (27.6%) of the global mobile infrastructure market.[5]
2000s Ericsson experiences a drastic 40% drop in sales from 2000 to 2002. From the mid-2000s, Ericsson’s sales improve; recovering its global telecommunication infrastructure investment. However, owing to its overwhelming sales growth, Huawei would overtake Ericsson finally in terms of annual sales in 2012.[5] Sony Mobile Communications is founded as a joint venture between Sony and Ericsson.[6]
2010s In 2012, Ericsson sold its mobile-phone business to Sony, five years after Apple introduced the first iPhone. Today Ericsson is a world's leading provider of technology and services to telecom operators. It is a leader in 2G, 3G and 4G mobile technologies, provides support for networks with over 2 billion subscribers, and has the leading position in managed services.[7]
