LONDON – Memory chip manufacturer Hynix Semiconductor Inc. is changing its name to SK Hynix Inc. This comes after mobile network operator SK Telecom Co. Ltd. completed the acquisition of a 21 percent stake in Hynix for 3.34 trillion won (about $3 billion) in February.

Hynix shareholders approved the name change today (March 23) according to a Marketwatch report and the company's Hynix website already redirects to www.skhynix.com and shows the name SK Hynix in logo form.
