WiLAN has completed its acquisition of International Road Dynamics (IRD) and will begin trading on 6 June 2017 as Quarterhill, as part of its plan to transition to a growth-oriented diversified investment holding company by acquiring businesses that will operate alongside the company's intellectual property licensing business.
Quarterhill has now completed two acquisitions since announcing its new strategy and now has three wholly-owned subsidiaries, IRD, VIZIYA, a software and services provider, and WiLAN.
As part of the transition to its acquisition-oriented growth strategy, the company has named John Varghese senior vice president, Corporate Investments to lead its acquisition team.
