Telefonaktiebolaget L M Ericsson (Telefonaktiebolaget L M Ericsson) Business Description

Address
Torshamnsgatan 21, Kista, Stockholm, SWE, SE-164 83
Ericsson provides telecom equipment and services that are primarily used to build and facilitate mobile networks through operations in three segments: networks, cloud and software services, and enterprises. The firm's customers have historically been primarily wireless carriers, but the firm is making a push to cater more to other enterprises as well, both as they try to take advantage of 5G capabilities and on other "as-a-service" communications platforms. The company also licenses its patents to handset manufacturers so their devices are compatible with wireless networks.
