 |  | Swisscom Innovations - Mission | |  | When you go to places no one has been before, there's no point in looking for a map. Any company defending a position at the sharp edge of technological advance has to create an environment in which its employees are free to follow their instincts when exploring new opportunities, while clearly striving for turning insight into business. At Swisscom Innovations we rely on an interdisciplinary team of specialists and nurture a culture of innovation based on the breadth and depth of their expertise. On the one hand, we develop concrete proposals with a technical and economic rationale designed for practical use by individual Group companies, and we support the Group companies in their current projects. On the other hand, our engineers have the freedom to look beyond immediate issues, using their findings to evaluate the impact of technological developments on the strategy of the Swisscom Group as a whole as well as identifying new business opportunities and promoting technical synergies. A vital prerequisite here is having the necessary scope to think beyond conventional telecom paradigms and to radically rethink situations. | |  | |  | |  |
