KKR & Co. Inc.'s co-founder Henry Kravis is exploring potential business prospects in Italy, which may result in increased investments in the country. He has scheduled meetings with officials from three Italian private companies in the technology, manufacturing, and automation sectors. This comes ahead of KKR's binding offer for Telecom Italia's landline network, which could be worth $24.7 billion.
