 PROFILE
Cable and Wireless is rerouting its corporate strategy to take on the business world's data needs. Cable and Wireless (C&W) offers traditional telecommunications services on a global scale but is focusing on the growing demand for business data and Internet services, especially in Europe, Japan, and the US, under its Cable & Wireless Global unit. C&W has been on a buying and selling spree, ridding itself of noncore holdings and gobbling up ISPs across Europe. It is also investing in the development of IP (Internet protocol) networks and opening Web hosting facilities. The company plans to sell its controlling stake in Cable & Wireless Optus, Australia's #2 telecom provider.
