The move was made right on the day of the official announcement on the Bucharest Stock Exchange about Digi’s plans to expand dominance on the mobile communications segment, May 27, a recent issue of the Official Gazette shows.
Prior to Digi’s announcement on May 27, the seller of the majority stake in West Network Invest, Adrian Tomsa, had attempted to buy Telekom Romania Mobile on his own together with other investors. The papers were signed in November 2023 and then submitted to the relevant authorities for approval and were withdrawn at the end of May 2024, when OTE came up with a new buyer – the Digi Group, along with Adrian Tomsa and Clever Media Network.
