Acquisition of Vodafone Italia

On 31 December 2024, Swisscom successfully completed the acquisition of Vodafone Italia. The existing Italian subsidiary Fastweb and Vodafone Italia bring together complementary, high-quality mobile and fixed network infrastructure and practical expertise to establish a leading convergent provider on the Italian market. With extensive synergies and a more efficient cost structure, Fastweb + Vodafone is expected to generate considerable added value for all stakeholders – through sustainable investments in the Italian telecommunications market, innovative, convergent services at competitive prices, and improved offerings and customer experiences in all market segments. For the Swisscom Group, the acquisition of Vodafone Italia is a significant step towards realising its strategic goal of profitable growth in Italy. The improved positioning in Italy will also strengthen the Swisscom Group as a whole. As of 1 January 2026, the legal entities Fastweb and Vodafone Italia were legally merged, becoming a single corporate entity under the name Fastweb S.p.A. The merged company continues to operate on the market under the corporate brand Fastweb + Vodafone.
