Stable quarterly result with important impetus for the future. Swisscom presents a stable result for the first nine months of 2025. The acquisition of Vodafone Italia ensures a strong boost in revenue of around 37%. The financial results and market performance are as expected. Innovations strengthen Swisscom’s business. This includes the full market launch of "beem", which protects companies against cyberattacks and digital threats directly in the network. Newest example is myAI. This AI assistant offers many functions that customers are familiar with from ChatGPT and similar services. However, the key difference is that myAI was developed in Switzerland, prioritises data protection and is not used for training purposes.  The connect tests have confirmed Swisscom as Switzerland's leading provider for years. In the past quarter, Swisscom won the broadband and fixed network test for the fifth consecutive time and once again achieved the service triple with victories in the app, shops, and hotline categories.  The integration of Vodafone Italia is progressing as planned. Furthermore, Fastweb + Vodafone has launched the first joint portfolio for private customers. Swisscom confirms the financial outlook for 2025.

Telecom providers invest billions in networks. And still lose revenue in the decisive moment: when the customer is ready to convert. At its core, the issue is simple - and often underestimated: Buying decisions are fragile and time-critical. If customers have to search at the crucial moment… If information is scattered across systems… If switching between website, app and hotline creates friction… The impulse fades. And with it, the conversion. That’s what my latest guest article for ITW Verlag GmbH / itwelt.at is about (in German): https://lnkd.in/dv93dKq4

Stop drowning in notes. Start thinking clearly. Most productivity systems promise to help you capture everything. This book offers something better: the courage to capture almost nothing. The Minimalist's Zettelkasten strips the popular note-taking method down to its essence—three simple moves repeated over time. No complicated software. No thousand-note archives. No digital hoarding disguised as knowledge work.
