Sony Mobile Communications announced today that it plans to lay off 15 percent of its workforce, approximately 1,000 employees, by 2014. The decision will mainly affect employees stationed at Sony Mobile’s headquarters in Lund, Sweden.
In October, the division’s headquarters will also relocate from Sweden to Toyko. The Lund offices will remain, with a focus on mobile software and application development.
In a statement, the president and CEO of Sony Mobile, Kunimasa Suzuki, said, “We are accelerating the integration and convergence with the wider Sony group to continue enhancing our offerings, and a more focused and efficient operational structure will help to reduce Sony Mobile’s costs, enhance time to market efficiency and bring the business back to a place of strength.”
