Today it is my pleasure to introduce myself as the new Director of the department Innovation, Testing & Quality at Vodafone and thus also as the Director of the Test & Innovation Center.

My new job started on 1 April 2012. This new professional challenge for me has thus begun at a particularly exciting time: The CeBIT trade fair which is so important for our sector and for contacts between Vodafone and its business customers has only recently closed its doors for this year. The introduction of the pioneering new generation of mobile communication LTE, is in full swing. And with topics and technologies such as All-IP, Single RAN or RCSe the next challenges are already awaiting us.

These are all reminders that the wheels are always in motion, and that we at Vodafone are permanently involved with and pressing ahead with technical innovations.

Prerequisites for this, however, are constant aspects which are also important to me: The excellent and close cooperation between the Test & Innovation Center and its customers, i.e. the readers of this newsletter, must continue unchanged. 

I look forward to intensive and successful cooperation, to your general and project-related enquiries, and to your feedback in the form of criticism and praise! The quickest way to contact us is via

Best regards,

Dr. Axel Schulz

Director Test & Innovation Center
