Q: What was the biggest thing that affected Alcatel-Lucent in 2008?
2008 saw the rapid proliferation of Web 2.0 and enterprise 2.0 applications which altered the way people and organizations personalised, collaborated and shared information.
Recognizing this, Alcatel-Lucent focused on improving the Web experience for end users and enterprises.
Moving forward, we will be working closely with service providers, customers and application providers to effect this positioning of the company.
What impact do you expect the recession to have on the telecoms space?
Anyone following the global telecoms industry will tell you that major operators are reducing investments in their networks and buying less equipment. No service provider or vendor will remain unaffected.
Having said that, we believe that acting on our new strategy will bring new business opportunities, as we work closely with service providers, customers and application providers.
What technology innovation are you looking forward to in 2009?
Specifically for Singapore, fiber optics, driven by the National Broadband Network project will be very hot.
