Memo on the Founding of Umbrella

Umbrella was founded in 1963 by three partners – myself, my good friend Edward Ashford, and prominent virology expert Dr. James Marcus.

We shared a common goal from the outset. We believed that virus research would play an important role in improving people’s health. One day, it would even help to build a society free from the ills of disease/

The Umbrella logo is a symbol of our unwavering pledge: preserving the health of the people. Technology is the umbrella that will serve that purpose. Thanks to everyone’s support, our company has grown and the Umbrella logo is recognised and trusted throughout the world. For 40 years, we have followed our principles and delivered safety and peace of mind to medical facilities and homes.

I would like to thank our loyal shareholders, employees and customers for their invaluable contributions to our continuing success. Unfortunately, both Edward and James have passed on in the course of this last year. When I mourn their loss, I feel their shining example lives on in the work we do every day. I know they would be proud if they could see Umbrella now.

We at Umbrella will continue to do our best to spur new innovation and make the world a better place for everyone. Humanity’s future is safe under our umbrella.

We appreciate your continued support.

Umbrella Corporation Founder,

Ozwell E. Spencer
