enhancing lives through technology

Expanding accessibility, improving online safety, and providing opportunities for better and faster broadband connectivity – these are a few of the ways we're using technology to enhance our customers' lives. Among our efforts, we've rolled out several products and services that address social concerns and the needs of our diverse customers. For example, we've expanded the lineup of products and services for customers with disabilities and special needs.

Verizon also continues to be a leading advocate for applying the capabilities inherent in our high-speed broadband networks to improving the quality of health care and reducing associated costs. We are also passionate about our ongoing effort to raise awareness with parents and their kids about online safety.

We deliver content to customers in ways that few companies can match. We've built a national wireless data network, a global Internet Protocol (IP) backbone, and a best-in-class fiber network – FiOS – which is delivering ultra-high bandwidth all the way to customers' homes. Not only do these networks enable us to deliver today's multimedia services faster and more reliably, they also provide a platform for innovation and next-generation services. This ultra-high bandwidth is creating economic growth and driving new solutions in health care, transportation and public safety.
