Our strategic direction

Teleste’s vision is to be leading provider of broadband video technology and services for operators. We are passionately working towards this vision by creating better and more valuable product solutions and services for our customers. Our target is to create value for our shareholders through profitable growth and for our employees through challenging and inspiring working environment.

Teleste’s company structure consists of two customer-oriented business units - Broadband Cable Networks and Video Networks - whose strategic priorities lie in creating value added solutions and services for our customers in selected market and business segments. The strategic priorities of our Product Operations unit lie in developing technology platform for business units and managing key development projects as well as cost effective processes in producing superior quality products. These operational areas are supported by the Support Function organisation.

Teleste’s strength is built on our competent, innovative and committed personnel dedicated to working for the company vision. We strive for operational excellence through systematic process management to reach even better quality with lower costs. We are a high technology company with customer oriented technology development as our principle approach. Our comprehensive international network enables customer care locally. We already are market leaders in Europe in our field, but aim to be within top three on the global market.

Teleste has an open and informal communication culture both internally and externally. This is why we also communicate to our interest groups our strategic key actions. These key actions are based on our estimate of industry mega trends that we will be facing in the next 3 to 5 years. To point out a few of these trends: IP based technology will be the winning platform - more and more of symmetric bandwidth will be needed, networks and contents will be digitalised and new services will be needed over the existing physical networks. Demand for service offerings will be growing steadily. In regard of the Video Networks’ some specific trends: the general acceptance of video surveillance is increasing, network management software and video recording play an increasing role, and different add-on-applications are developing rapidly.

We are responding to these trends by adding more value to our existing customer base, by innovative services and technology solutions and by operational excellence. To point out some concrete key actions: We are entering the residential broadband (data) market with advanced next generation network technology, we are developing comprehensive IP based products and systems such as Luminato and MyCast Hybrid TV solutions, as well as widening our product range and competence through strategic partnering. Further we develop our European wide services business network. We are enhancing our network management competence and developing our overall processes and low cost sourcing. Most of these actions are well on their way and will be communicated in more detail in specific business area sections.

With these and other actions we are committed to reach our target of profitable growth. Our strategy is based on organic growth in promising business segments, but we also are ready to grow through mergers and acquisitions, should these support our strategic directions and should promising opportunities rise.

By reading our plans carefully and following our company development through the media and these web sights, you will get to know our transparent and open communication culture. We focus above all on implementation. Our core value is reliability – we keep our promises and we deliver.
