(Telecompaper) The board of Telecom Italia (TIM) has given the go-ahead to the creation of a broadcasting joint venture with Vivendi's pay-TV channel Canal Plus.

TIM's leading shareholder Vivendi has frequently stated that it's looking to use its stake to create a southern European media empire and the move is "an important step forward in the strategy of convergence between telecommunications and media", said TIM's new CEO Amos Genish.
