This was followed by a guided tour to the Altice Labs campus with particular emphasis on the following areas of activity:
– Network Systems, with a visit to the development, prototype and testing laboratories;
– Network and Platforms services, with a demonstration of the Smart 2M product;
– Digital services, Internet and Television, with a demonstration of SmartAL product;
– Future Labs with a demonstration of new prototypes such as Smart Mirror and Ultra TV.
During 2017, Altice Labs received 21 school visits and was in contact with approximately 485 secondary and university students.
At the same time, Altice Labs was represented in various events during 2017, together with some universities that included job fairs, promotion of innovation projects and innovation award, lectures and seminars and implementation of partnerships in the development of R&D projects.
The investment made in proximity initiatives to Schools and Universities, aims to awaken in students the desire to pursue qualified studies in the technological areas whose profile is relevant to Altice Labs.
