Mobile technologies
for tomorrow.
What effects do mobile technologies have on societies? How do we organize our lives in 2020? And how does the future of work look like?
Communications technology provides innovative solutions for the major changes and challenges that our society is on the brink of experiencing. We are a THINK & DO TANK providing direction-giving input to decision makers and business managers as communications technology evolves.
The Vodafone Institute for Society and Communication SUPPORTS AND DEVELOPS enterprising solutions which will help our society to cope with future challenges. We also provide a PLATFORM FOR IDEAS about how communications technology can enhance quality of life and boost economic productivity.
The Institute was founded in fall 2011 by Vodafone Germany and is commencing its work in January 2012.
