Established in 1996, Internet Gold began modestly as a pioneering Israeli Internet Service Provider, and grew through organic growth and acquisitions to become one of Israel's top three providers of broadband services and long-distance telephony.
In October 2009, Internet Gold announced that its approximately 75%-owned subsidiary 012 Smile.Communications had signed a definitive agreement to purchase a controlling interest (approximately 30.6%) in Bezeq, The Israel Telecommunication Corp., Israelיs incumbent and largest telecommunications provider (TASE:BZEQ). This transaction, when completed, will transform Internet Gold into the clear leader of Israeli communications.
Internet Gold is controlled by Eurocom Communications, a major Israeli privately held investment group. Internet Gold's shares are traded on Nasdaq (symbol IGLD) and the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE - tracked as part of the TA-100 index)
