Rogers Communications Inc.

Rogers Communications Inc. (TSX: RCI.A, TSX: RCI.B, NYSE: RCI) is one of Canada's largest communications companies, particularly in the field of wireless communications and cable television, with additional telecommunications and mass media assets. It is headquartered in the Rogers Building in Toronto, Ontario.

The company considers its history to date back to the Rogers Vacuum Tube Company founded by Edward S. Rogers, Sr., which started Toronto radio station CFRB (RB stands for "Rogers Batteryless"), but was later acquired by outside interests.

The current company's earliest direct predecessors were started by his son, Edward S. "Ted" Rogers: Rogers Radio Broadcasting Ltd., which acquired CHFI-FM in 1960, and Aldred-Rogers Broadcasting, a partnership with Joel Aldred which helped launch CFTO-TV in 1961. Rogers later bought out Aldred and started the current cable and wireless operations.

Rogers Communications's primary competitor is Bell Canada, which has a similar portfolio of wireless, television, and telephone services, particularly in eastern and central Canada. The company also competes nationally with Telus for wireless services, Shaw Direct for television service, and various other media companies in the broadcasting industry.

On March 29, 2009 it was announced that Nadir Mohamed would succeed Ted Rogers as the new President and Chief Executive Officer of the company.
