Technology and Innovation
Mobile & Fixed networks
Since making the first mobile phone call on 1 January 1985, we have pioneered fixed and mobile technology.
From connecting everything from earthquake warning sensors and health monitors to traffic safety systems and conducting the world’s first 5G holographic call—our aim is to create an inclusive gigabit society.
One that is built on digital connectivity for all, offering very high speeds and highly responsive connectivity, ultra-dense coverage and the secure exchange of data.
Why Telecoms Matters
Europe is now on the cusp of the next major productivity boost, driven by next-generation telecoms connectivity and the digitalisation of industry.
But with Europe some way from achieving its 5G Digital Decade targets, an alarming ‘connectivity chasm’ is opening between Europe and competing regions that could leave EU citizens, businesses, and society at risk of further economic decline.
This could be reversed if Europe prioritises the deployment of technologies including 5G Standalone (5GSA) that upgrades the telecoms network core as well as the radio antennas.
Building world leading networks
Our partnerships and investment in superior cable, fibre, and mobile networks using 100% renewable energy allow us to deliver a better, more consistent performance. By using new software-driven technology, our networks have the ability to self-heal, and we can quickly increase speed and capacity where needed.
We’re building a gigabit future above and below ground. Businesses will have their own ultra-low latency connections supported by digital customer care that predicts faults before they occur. We’re allowing a tech workforce, immersed in our inclusive culture, to invent the future.
