Bose Corporation is a privately held company, meaning it is not publicly traded on any stock exchange. The company is owned by Amar Bose's family trust.
The company was founded by Dr. Amar G. Bose, an electrical engineering professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). He established the company in 1964 and remained its chairman until his death in 2013. Since then, the company has continued to be run by the Bose family trust.
