GUGLIELMO MARCONI
Guglielmo Marconi (1874 - 1937) was an Italian inventor and electrical engineer known for his pioneering
work on long-distance radio transmission and for his development of Marconi's law and a radio telegraph
system. He is usually credited as the inventor of radio, and he shared the 1909 Nobel Prize in Physics with
Karl Ferdinand Braun "in recognition of their contributions to the development of wireless telegraphy".
Marconi was also an entrepreneur, businessman, and founder of The Wireless Telegraph & Signal Company in
the United Kingdom in 1897 (which became the Marconi Company). He succeeded in making an engineering
and commercial success of radio by innovating and building on the work of previous experimenters and
physicists. In 1929, Marconi was ennobled as a Marchese (marquis) by King Victor Emmanuel III of Italy
and, in 1931, he set up the Vatican Radio for Pope Pius XI.
