JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Internet telephony company Skype aims to open up its platform to boost access to services by the business sector, Chief Executive Josh Silverman said on Wednesday.

"We are working on how to do this," he told reporters at the Israel Presidential Conference in Jerusalem.

The company is beta testing Skype for SIP, which would enable the integration of Skype on business telephony networks. Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is the leading voice over Internet protocol used in these networks.

Silverman said the product should be commercially launched in 2010.
