1)
1) Excluding discontinued operations
The main employee increase in 2007 came from
acquisitions made in Lighting (Partners in Lighting
International, Color Kinetics), CE (Digital Lifestyle
Outtters) and in Innovation & Emerging Businesses
(Health Watch and Raytel Cardiac Services).
The largest reductions in 2007 occurred due to the sale
of business interests in Innovation & Emerging Businesses
(most notably Optical Storage), in CE (primarily the Mobile
Phones business) and in Group Management & Services
(principally the Financial Shared Services operations).
Opening at Schiphol Airport, Amsterdam, in early 2008, the rst
implementation of Philips’ ‘One Star is Born’ concept by hotel
chain citizenM has been developed to offer guests ‘affordable
luxury’. Integrating multiple functionalities, this innovative solution
puts the consumer at the heart of the hotel experience and
enables hotel owners to optimize operating costs.
