“ THROUGH PREDOMINATELY AUTOMATED PROCESSES , WE GIVE CUSTOMERS THE CAPABILITY TO OPTIMISE PROCESSES FOR BOTH EFFICIENCY AND SUSTAINABILITY ”

JENS ERLER IOT CLIENT PRINCIPAL , ERICSSON
“ I see it as critical to making the world an improved , sustainable society for future generations ,” Erler says . “ I am committed to driving meaningful change through the work I do each day , and Ericsson , the company I have the honour of working for , plays a critical role in enabling digital transformation .”
According to Erler , connectivity is not only about putting a SIM card into a device . “ Such devices ( sensors measuring environmental conditions , for example ) may need to connect to many different cellular networks in different countries and may require certain connectivity service levels – and will definitely need to be protected against cyber-attacks ,” says Erler . “ All of that needs to be managed at a large scale to allow our enterprise customers to build a successful business with solutions contributing to global sustainability targets .”
By providing customers with the tools and services to do all this , Ericsson helps them remain successful in what will eventually be a fully-connected world , while also reducing their carbon footprint .
