Nokia Siemens Networks said on Wednesday it had agreed to buy Britain's Apertio for about $205 million and expects to close the deal in the first quarter of 2008.
Closely held Apertio, a provider of real-time subscriber data applications for telecom operators, employs 237 staff, NSN said in a statement.
Apertio would form a new business line within Nokia Siemens' Converged Core business unit, headed by current Apertio Chief Executive Paul Magelli, NSN said.
