Starkey is a global hearing technology company based in Minnesota, USA. Starkey’s story began when Harold Starkey opened his first laboratory in 1963. William F. Austin then bought Starkey Laboratories in 1967, and Starkey Hearing Technologies was born. Since that day, Starkey has been creating world firsts in hearing aid technology, including the world’s first custom In-The-Ear hearing aid (1971) and the world’s first Invisible-In-Canal hearing aid (2010). Building on that legacy of innovation, Starkey has continued developing hearing technology, introducing the first hearing aids with built-in health tracking (2018), real-time language translation (2018), automatic fall detection (2019), and many innovative AI hearing aid features.
