Iwatsu Electric, Co., Ltd. (岩崎通信機株式会社, Iwasaki Tsūshinki Kabushiki-gaisha^?) TYO: 6704 is a Japanese electronics manufacturer founded 14 August 1938, whose primary focus is on the following three business domains:

Originally starting up as a telephone manufacturer, Iwatsu had been a long time supplier to the public Nippon Telegraph and Telephone company. The company has enjoyed growth along the public NTT, expanding its products to radio communication equipment, oscilloscopes, and in the 1961, their first reprographic system.

Seiichi Iwasaki was born in 1895 in Shimane, Japan. As a teenager, he moved to Tokyo without his family. He worked by day to support himself and went to school by night. Whilst in school, he became the leader of a circle of like-minded friends, which they called Hatenkai. Together, they vowed to succeed in the future.

Iwasaki dropped out of school in 1912 and began his military service in 1913 in Okayama--which he completed in three years. Then he moved to Hokkaidō where he started his career as an entrepreneur. His ventures in Hokkaidō stretched from railroads to coal mines, until the year 1933 when he changed his course and came back to Tokyo again.
