Kathy Holland, Marconi's manager of communications, confirmed that the company is in final discussions regarding three separate properties in the city, including the Alamance building on Koger Boulevard near Wendover Avenue. Holland declined to comment on the other two properties, other than noting that they are in west Greensboro. Though no contract has been signed, Holland said the company expects to announce a deal in the next two weeks. The space would predominantly house software engineers and marketing personnel. Marconi's service station equipment division would continue to operate at the West Friendly location, Holland said.
Management expects that amount to double in the next three years.
Company officials also expect employment to grow by 10 percent a year over the next few years. As of December, Marconi employed 1,450 people in Greensboro. Officials were unavailable to comment on how the move would affect employment growth, or how many people would relocate to the new location.
