6. WHAT IS TELEKOM SHIFT?
The movement kicks off at a perspective changing
event in Budapest, where we are going to raise co-
thinking and co-creation to a global level and take
the first step to become a digital leader.
TO PROVE THE POWER OF GLOBAL CO-CREATION
TELEKOM SHIFT IS A MOVEMENT
THAT CONNECTS VISIONARY PEOPLE

7. WHY ARE WE DOING
TELEKOM SHIFT?
The goal is to demonstrate the power of Telekom employees
working together on business challenges that have global
impact – versus the inefficiency of parallel working.
Multicomplicated challenges require multipotential teams.
The world is connected, so we need to be connected.
Telekom Shift connects hidden champions among employees
all over the world to solve global challenges and overcome
silos by co-creation.
