Actor in public debates

We are committed to main­tain­ing transparent and trusting relationships with politicians, public au­thor­i­ties, as­so­ci­a­tions and the community in all regions of Switzer­land.

We also represent our interests in the European Telecom­mu­ni­ca­tions Net­work Operators’ Association (ETNO). We participate in public hearings and events and play our part in the political process. First and foremost, we provide in­for­ma­tion on in­fra­struc­ture and security issues, and on the necessary framework conditions in line with our corporate strategy.

In line with our own anti-corruption directive and based on the relevant ethical codes (the Code of Lisbon and the Code of Professional Conduct of the Swiss Society of Public Affairs, SSPA), we reject unlawful or ethically questionable practices aimed at exerting influence on opinion leaders and decision-makers. Moreover, we are a non-denominational and politically neutral organisation and we do not make any political con­tri­bu­tions.

As a re­spon­si­ble corporate citizen, we also contribute – with planned projects and services as well as professionally – to public discussions on the topics of education policy, media skills, the digital trans­for­ma­tion, mobile com­mu­ni­ca­tions and broad­band expansion, and basic service provision.
