Xfinity’s parent company, Comcast, is a global technology company that offers Internet, TV and streaming, mobile, home and phone services.
According to the company’s history timeline, Comcast was founded in 1963 when Ralph J. Roberts, an entrepreneur, purchased a community-antenna TV system in Tupelo, Mississippi, which was named American Cable Systems. In 1969, the company rebranded as Comcast Corporation and incorporated in Pennsylvania. The company went public in 1972 and traded on the NASDAQ stock market for the first time. By 1988, Comcast had become the nation’s fifth-largest cable company.
In 2011, Comcast and General Electric completed their transaction to form NBCUniversal, LLC., in which Comcast acquired a 51% ownership stake. Two years later, Comcast announced their acquisition of GE’s 49% equity ownership interest and celebrated its 50th anniversary as a company.
With Xfinity, Comcast’s mission is “to deliver the best in internet, entertainment, voice, mobile and home management, all working together to give customers instant access to the things that matter most — anywhere, anytime.” Xfinity Home is an integral part of this technology system, operating best when powered by Xfinity internet and paired with other technology services under the same parent company.
