I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'electronic device' is the definition.
'radio' can be an answer for 'device' (thesaurus). I am not sure about the 'electronic' bit.

'runs business importing italy's foremost' is the wordplay.
'runs' becomes 'r' (cricket abbreviation).
'business' becomes 'ado' (both can mean happenings or commotion).
'importing' is an insertion indicator.
'foremost' says to take the initial letters.
The initial letter of 'italys' is 'i'.
'ado' enclosing 'i' is 'adio'.
'r'+'adio'='RADIO'
