About TECOM Investments
A subsidiary of Dubai Holding, TECOM Investments started with the aim of developing the knowledge-based economy in Dubai. This aim addresses a variety of industry sectors including telecom, media and technology park development. To achieve the ambition of developing the knowledge economy, TECOM successfully initiated a cluster approach in order to tackle each defined component of the knowledge-centric service offering. The clustered approach proved successful not just in the information and communication technology industry but also in media, education, and biotechnology sectors. TECOM first launched its telecom operations in 2000 with what was the region's first commercial deployment of converged services over a single IP network, offering a range of corporate and residential services, including IP triple play (TV, telephony and broadband internet). TECOM recently announced the acquisition of a 35% stake in Tunisie Telecom. TECOM's other telecom investments include a Axiom, the largest mobile distributor in the Middle East, and Interoute, a next generation IP network connecting together most countries in Europe.
