Telecom Italia SpA (TIT), the largest Italian telecommunications company, is in talks to sell its Matrix SpA Internet Unit to the Egyptian billionaire Naguib Sawiris.
Telecom Italia SpA (TIT) is listed on the Borsa Italiana and was founded in 1994 by the merger of several state-owned telecommunications companies, the most important of which was Società Italiana per l'Esercizio Telefonico p.A. (known as SIP from the earlier Società Idroelettrica Piemontese), the state monopoly telephone operator in Italy.
