The Board of Directors of Infrastrutture Wireless Italiane S.p.A. (INWIT) met today, chaired by Francesco Profumo and appointed Paola Bruno as Company Director, on the proposal of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee, in lieu of Professor Umberto Tombari, who had tendered his resignation last 13 November.
