"Society and Technology" conference
At Telenor we aim to discover possibilities. Modern
communication technology provides society
with possibilities for meeting the challenges of
the welfare state faster and more efficiently. In
recent years Telenor has focused specifically on
developing a range of telecoms services which
can allow healthcare professionals to dedicate
their efforts to providing more personalised care
rather than to performing tasks that technology
can handle just as well or even better. In 2012 we
started a series of autumn conferences focusing on
how the targeted use of communication technology
can create a better society. This conference series
is called "Society and Technology", and in 2012 the
theme was welfare technology.
for business customers
Machine-to-machine technology (M2M)
is a common term for services that secure
communication either from one machine to
another, between machines or from machines to
people. Telenor has 20 years of experience in the
M2M subscribers. In this year's report on corporate
responsibility we have chosen to provide five
examples of M2M services that Telenor supplies.
We have a range of other services that can make
our customers' business communication models
more efficient and environmentally friendly. An
example of this is the Coordinated Communication
solution which we upgraded in 2012.
At the end of this section you can read about our
contribution to the production of Telethon 2012
and about our work to protect the large number of
technical/industrial cultural heritage sites for which
we are responsible.
