I am optimistic about the future of our industry. Working collaboratively as an industry with regulators we have an opportunity to be the big tech enabler. We are mission-critical. Let’s together reinvent better! Allison Kirkby,

@TennisPodcast JMDP vs Djokovic in 3rd round of 2011 French Open when their match was unexpectedly moved from Chatrier to Lenglen which I had tickets for. The best and most thrilling first two sets they played and I saw that day!

Great thread on Sweden and Swedes that totally captures my experiences here since moving a few months ago. I wish I knew about saffron a few weeks ago though (#142 on the list)

[Något naturvetenskapligt @sofi_t_deveaux]

For each like i’ll share one piece of advice for how to enjoy life in Sweden (if you recently moved here)

Have mobile networks really been around for 40 years already?! Happy to see the legacy of innovation live on also today

[Telia Company @TeliaCompany]

🎉 Happy birthday, dear mobile!

On October 1, 1981, us and @Ericsson launched Europe’s first 1G mobile network kicking off a technology wave which would change the world as we knew it.

Current commitments of governments around the world fall short of what is needed to limit global warming.

A coalition of companies today urges G20 leaders to sharpen their promises and commit to at least halving emissions by 2030 and achieving net-zero emissions 2050.

@laurenscerulus congrats!

As we focus on next steps in #EUGreenDeal this week, here is a reminder of the role #telco and #digital can play in driving #circular transformation #racetozero 👇 https://t.co/AHKZHKqbkc

[Connect Europe @connecteuropex]

The telco sector is going through an important transition when it comes to energy consumption vs data usage, acting as an enabler for other industries, governments, people to become more sustainable, @RachelSamren of @TeliaCompany said at the #DigitalPolicyDay

[We Mean Business Coalition (inactive) @WMBtweets]

“Now is the time for G7 countries to deliver on their commitment to bring emissions in line with the 1.5ºC goal,” says Allison Kirkby, @TeliaCompany President and CEO, as #G7Summit leaders gather today. #TCFDrecs https://t.co/pxOdb3Tecz

More transparency around risks & opportunities will do a lot to accelerate global progress on climate change. @NordicCEOs, @Osloboers, & @NorwayMFA's endorsement of @FSB_TCFD helps build momentum at a critical time in the lead-up to #COP26. https://t.co/ON9ttth3PX

[Telia Company @TeliaCompany]

Telia has secured a 120 MHz frequency block in the 3.5 GHz band, a critical asset that will lay the groundwork for the continued expansion of #5G across Sweden and help strengthen the digital competitiveness in the coming years.
