# Guglielmo Marconi (@guglielmo-marconi)

Guglielmo Marconi was an Italian engineer and entrepreneur who developed and commercialized practical long-distance wireless telegraphy. He shared the 1909 Nobel Prize in Physics with Karl Ferdinand Braun.

Calling him the sole inventor of radio is misleading. His systems built on electromagnetic theory, Hertzian experiments, antennas, tuning, detectors, patents, operators, and competing inventors.
