I actually have no idea why this is called Marconi so I have no idea if the logo fits.

Since IOG has a tradition of using famous scientists for product names (Ada, Cardano, Basho, Goguen, etc.). Marconi is a famous italian scientist. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guglielmo_Marconi
I don't think the logo has to fit the person. Similar with Cardano; it's logo doesn't really fit.

This is the first idea that we explored with a graphic designer. I basically like it. Taking on logo design can be a big project, and mostly I'm happy we have something we can use. I think it's worth asking the deeper question of what the logo should truly be. But the nuts and bolts of going through a true design process can be very time consuming. Maybe we could consider taking suggestions from the whole team. Could be a rabbit hole though!

I think the logo represents a radio which Marconi invented.
