Guglielmo Marconi
Guglielmo Giovanni Maria Marconi, 1st Marquess of Marconi (; ; 25 April 1874 – 20 July 1937) was an Italian electrical engineer, inventor and politician known for his creation of a practical radio wave-based wireless telegraph system. This led to Marconi being credited as the inventor of radio and sharing the 1909 Nobel Prize in Physics with Karl Ferdinand Braun "in recognition of their contributions to the development of wireless telegraphy".
His work laid the foundation for the development of radio, television and all modern wireless communication systems.Marconi was also an entrepreneur and businessman who founded the Wireless Telegraph & Signal Company (which became the Marconi Company) in the United Kingdom in 1897. In 1929, Marconi was ennobled as a marquess (''marchese'') by Victor Emmanuel III. In 1931, he set up Vatican Radio for Pope Pius XI.
