Origins and achievements

Eurescom was founded on 14 March 1991 by 20 major European telecommunication network operators and service providers. The company’s purpose was to organise collaborative R&D activities, leveraging the members’ resources in order to address innovative solutions and opportunities. The members of Eurescom include major European telcos like Deutsche Telekom, Orange, and Telecom Italia.

Eurescom can look back on a series of outstanding results from its private telco project programme, which had a major impact on Europe‘s communications landscape. Eurescom made, for example, major contributions to the introduction of interoperable ISDN in Europe, the DECT standard, the design of today‘s network management systems, solutions in the Internet domain, and the development of new services and applications for mobile and fixed networks.
