Dans un marché déprimé, il entend doubler le chiffre d’affaires de son entreprise pour le porter à 60 milliards de dollars en 2017, soit quatre fois plus qu’Alcatel Lucent. Et constituer une entreprise qui rassemblerait sous un même toit les compétences d’Ericsson, de Cisco, de Nokia et pourquoi pas d’IBM, son modèle.

Dismantling the surveillance state won’t be easy. Has any country that engaged in mass surveillance of its own citizens voluntarily given up that capability? Has any mass surveillance country avoided becoming totalitarian? Whatever happens, we’re going to be breaking new ground. Again, the politics of this is a bigger task than the engineering, but the engineering is critical.
