- masklinn 4y agoWhy? Ericsson has always been a back-end networking and telecommunication company. Erlang was created, at Ericsson, for a telephony switch. It's shuttered the consumer side entirely (Sony Ericsson was a joint venture, not a group), it's one of the lead developers in mobile telephony, as well as the lead IP holder in the domain. In Europe also a large player in the broadcast space, though Red Bee Media (formerly Ericsson Broadcast and Media Services): BBC, Channel 4, ITV, Canal+, as well as Channel 4 and Channel 5's VOD. RBM is also a huge provider of closed captioning, signing, and audio description worldwide, by far the largest in europe for more than 15 years (after they acquired Mundovisión and Titelbild).
