PROFILE |
 |
Alcatel puts a French twist on telecom. One of France's largest industrial companies, Alcatel is a leading supplier of high-tech equipment for telecommunications. Communications products for public networks, homes, and businesses and related services account for most of its sales. Clients include Orange and Deutsche Telekom. It owns stakes in Thales, a French electronics company and Framatome, a nuclear power systems maker. Half of Alcatel's sales are made in Europe; the company continues to seek sales in North America. The company spun off 70% of its Nexans unit, which is a global leader in power and telecom cables manufacturing, to the public.
