“How Communications Technology is Changing the World”

Speaking at the October 24 Chief Executives’ Club of Boston, John Stratton, president of Verizon Enterprise Solutions, described some of the ways Verizon is responding to the “incredible pace of technology.” The company is pursuing opportunities “to change the way businesses run, the way customers shop, and the way everyone lives, works, and plays,” said Stratton, who stood in at the last minute for Verizon chairman and chief executive officer Lowell McAdam.

LTE as a Game-changer

What we see is a technology that’s literally changing the way mobile works. The super-fast speeds of LTE [long term evolution technology] make it a game-changer.

Takeaway

Anomalies in Network Behavior

[In our] new business unit called Verizon Enterprise Solutions … we have 500,000 miles of high-speed cables around the world … Because of the nature of that network and its pervasiveness, we can actually see anomalies in network behavior before they’re seen at the local level.

Takeaway

New Bridging Technology

We’ve just created ... an innovation around enabling any ... proprietary closed communications networks to be [used] across [a] bridging technology.

Takeaway

Technology and Health Care

We ... believe that by applying technologies in partnership with the key players in the health care profession, that we can make meaningful progress in improving patient outcomes and providing, particularly in the area of chronic disease management, continuous care.
