Telelogic AB was a software business headquartered in Malmö, Sweden. Telelogic was founded in 1983 as a research and development arm of Televerket, the Swedish department of telecom (now part of TeliaSonera). It was later acquired by IBM Rational, and exists under the IBM software group.[1]
Telelogic had operations in 22 countries and had been publicly traded since 1999. CEO and President in 2001 was Anders Lidbeck.[2] On June 11, 2007, IBM announced that it had made a cash offer to acquire Telelogic.[3][4][5] On August 29, 2007, the European Union opened an investigation[6] into the acquisition. On March 5, 2008, European regulators approved the acquisition of Telelogic by the Swedish IBM subsidiary Watchtower AB.[7] On April 28, 2008, IBM completed its purchase of Telelogic.[8]
