- Telecom Italia Sparkle (NYSE:TI) and Telefonica Business Solutions (NYSE:TEF) have set deals for LTE Roaming peering as well as connecting A2P messaging hubs to raise service quality.
- The two are solutions providers for their parent companies. The LTE deal -- an extension of an IPX peering agreement the two signed last year -- will ensure consistent user experience and interoperability between the two's networks.
