William (Karl Wilhelm) (1823–1883) moved to the UK in 1843; he perfected the open-hearth production of steel, pioneered the development of the electric locomotive and the laying of transoceanic cables, and improved the electric generator. The company now operates in the electrical and electronic sector.

William Siemens was manager of the firm Siemens Brothers, with Friedrich Siemens (1826–1904); the latter returned to Germany 1864.

During World War I a subsidiary firm, Siemens-Schuckert, manufactured a series of fighter aircraft for the German army.
