The American company was actually a former Bosch subsidiary that, together with the "Bosch" name, was expropriated after the First World War. In the contract, Robert Bosch AG not only reached an agreement on the use of the company name but also on coordinating the exchange of production know-how. The American company had been working on radio equipment for years. The German company could now use this knowledge and build on it.
