Major changes were made to the wording of the article. It contained an off-topic summary of the GN Group, including links to the main article (a breach of Wiki guidelines). Additionally, there were numerous repetitions of the phrase "acquired in September 2000," which has been addressed along with fixing grammar and addressing some layout issues related to ChatGPT. |

History
Jabra Corporation, founded in 1983[1] and holding some patents,[4] was acquired by GN Audio in September 2000,[1] a division of the Danish company GN Group, founded by C. F. Tietgen in 1869 as the Great Northern Telegraph Company.[5] Jabra's manufacturing plant is located in China.[6]
In 2006, GN consolidated its Contact Center and Office headset division under the Jabra brand. A restructuring in 2008 established two divisions within Jabra, later named Enterprise and Consumer. This restructuring facilitated a greater focus on business-to-business and consumer markets respectively.[7][8] Since 2012, development has also been located in China.[6]
In early 2019, GN Audio acquired Altia Systems for approximately $125M,[9] adding videoconferencing products to their lineup. Later in the year, the first video product from the acquisition was announced, the Jabra PanaCast.[10]
