  8. This is good … but it’s not enough

  9. The changing landscape • Convergence is gaining momentum • Convergence needs an underlying infrastructureto deliver and support it • Customers want more choice, flexibility and control • Simplicity is key

  10. 21CN - three key points • We will empower the customer with control, choice and flexibility like never before and offer them communications from anywhere to any device • We’ll make exciting new services available for customers faster than has been possible before • We’re reducing our costs – we’ll make growing cash cost savings which are expected to amount to £1 billion per annum by 2008/9 Customerexperience and empowerment Speed to market Cost transformation

  11. 21CN – what it means for BT • Moving from narrowband to broadband • Moving from selling capacity to selling capability • Moving from a product focus to customer focus

  12. 21CN - the radical strategy • Broadband everywhere… • Replacing the PSTN • PSTN transformation trial • A world first for a telecoms company

  13. Broadband dialtone • By 2009, broadband dialtone will be instantly available to most BT customers in the UK • Customers can switch lines to broadband use themselves • No physical work is required at the exchange
