Alcatel-Lucent has, as part of its environmental initiative, ceased the print edition of its Enriching Communications magazine. Instead, it has launched a new online portal through which it will continue to deliver consultative information, featured articles, global trends, case studies, podcasts, and insight from Alcatel-Lucent experts.

 

"The new Enriching Communications e-zine and discussion forum takes a close look at industry trends and the innovations that will address these current constraints and drive real change and business opportunities," writes Editor-in-Chief Ruth Killeen in her Editor's Blog - one of the new e-Zine features.

 

The new e-Zine format provides not only links to previous editions, but offers an interactive environment, not possible in print format, that seeks to drive readers to engage Alcatel-Lucent's expert contributors through article ratings, polls, and comment forums designed to generate conversation around key topics that impact businesses today. The online publication is available in English, French, Spanish, and Chinese languages.

 

"Our goal is to bring you expert, consultative thinking on your most pressing business issues," says Killeen.

To help drive the growth of LTE technologies and support operators looking for information on how to approach its challenges, the first edition of the online version of Enriching Communications focuses on how business growth through migration the LTE. Current articles include:

The upcoming edition will build upon these topics, with a focus on "How Ecosystems Change the Game," offering insight as to how a well-developed ecosystem is well suited to a next generation communications environment.
