The Swedish technology and research & development consulting group Teleca AB said today (4 February) that it had completed the acquisition of the Anglo-American software company Geoworks' United Kingdom operations.
The transaction means that Teleca will take over 27 employees, some assets and office leases from Geoworks' UK subsidiary for a consideration of approximately USD0.5m.
"The addition of this new operation is in line with Teleca's strategy to develop UK operations and our mobile device business, and is expected to deliver good margins from day one," said Nick Stammers, CEO Teleca AB.
The transaction was initially announced in September 2002 but was delayed pending approval from Geoworks' shareholders.
One US dollar (USD) is worth approximately 0.61 British pounds (GBP).
