Wireless equipment maker LM Ericsson (Nasdaq:ERICY) completed its US$2.1 billion (euro1.7 billion) acquisition of most of Marconi's assets Tuesday, marking the end to share trading in a company whose brand name traces its roots to the founder of radio. Sweden-based Ericsson, the world's largest maker of wireless network equipment, secured the Marconi trademark and 6,660 employees in the deal, which had been announced in October. The purchase gives Ericsson a stronger presence in fixed-line networks, as telecom operators look to intertwine mobile and fixed services more closely. Ericsson expects to reduce the combined staff by 15 percent to 20 percent. The company said it has not yet decided what it will do with the Marconi name. A spokeswoman said the brand would be used in some way, but specifics were still being investigated.
