E Ink Corporation is a privately held manufacturer of electrophoretic displays (EPDs), a kind of electronic paper. E Ink is located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and was founded in 1997 by Joseph Jacobson, a professor in the MIT Media Lab. Two years later, E Ink partnered with Philips to develop and market the technology. In 2005, Philips sold the electronic paper business as well as its related patents to Prime View International.

E Ink has since partnered with various companies, including Sony, Motorola and Amazon.com, to allow for the development of products like the Sony Reader, MOTOFONE and Kindle, which utilize E Ink technology.
