IBM Lays Off 150 Employees in Sweden
Tue Nov 18, 1:30 PM ET

STOCKHOLM, Sweden - The Swedish unit of IBM Corp. said Tuesday it will close
an information technology support unit and lay off the 157 workers there
because of a drop in demand for their services.

Company spokesman Andris Zvejnieks said the unit in Oestersund, 343 miles
northwest of Stockholm, was not believed to be profitable in the future.

IBM acquired the unit from wireless (news - web sites) equipment maker
Ericsson (news - web sites) in July.

The Armonk, N.Y.-based company employs about 320,000 people worldwide,
including 4,000 in Sweden.
