alcatel-lucentTelecom equipment giant Alcatel-Lucent is making a strategic shift towards web-enabled communications. Their plan is to combine the trusted capabilities of the network environment with the creative communications services of the web (Web 2.0, Web 3.0 and beyond).

This transformation will allow billions of customers to use millions of websites from any device guaranteeing security, quality, privacy and billing integrity. The overall service experience for end-users – consumers and businesses – will be improved and greater value will be created for every player in the industry.

This strategy requires providing an open environment, which does not exist today, where all these trusted capabilities can be available between the network and “over-the-top” applications typical of Web 2.0.

It is a challenge that Alcatel-Lucent is uniquely positioned to address, with its long-standing relationship with network-based service providers and thousands of enterprises worldwide, its capabilities in delivering fixed and mobile broadband, flat-IP networks and its end-to end integration capabilities around the globe.

In order to achieve this strategy, Alcatel-Lucent will undergo a major strategic transformation and will take some significant steps to realign its operations.

The company will be focusing on three markets: service providers, enterprises, and selected verticals and on four key areas of investment: IP, Optical, mobile and fixed Broadband and Applications enablement.

“We will work closely with our service provider, enterprise customers and applications providers to make this strategic transformation happen. We want to stimulate a sustainable business model for the industry that will fuel innovation and the capital investment required to expand the overall web experience to more people and businesses. Alcatel-Lucent is committed to innovate, collaborate and partner to achieve this goal”, said Ben Verwaayen, CEO of Alcatel-Lucent.
