Telecom Italia SpA is considering Elisabetta Ripa for the post of Telecom Argentina SA chief, according to people with knowledge of the matter.
Ripa, 49, currently leads Telecom Italia’s international wholesale and retail business arm and would replace Oscar Cicchetti as chief executive officer of the Argentine unit from January, the people said, asking not to be named as the deliberations aren’t public. The move would free Cicchetti, 63, to steer Telecom Italia’s wireless towers business in Italy for an initial public offering or sale, according to the people.
