Congratulations, Croatian Telecom!

Croatian Telecom (HT) has won the title of Microsoft's best business partner in Croatia for 2019. Microsoft has stated that Croatian Telecom is recognised as one of their best global partners in excellence, innovation and the implementation of Microsoft-based user solutions. Microsoft and Croatian Telecom collaborate most intensively in offering cloud services for business, especially Office 365 and Microsoft 365.

Tatjana Skoko, director of Microsoft Croatia., emphasised the fact that the competition for the award was very high. In the final, there were 2,900 companies nominated from as many as 115 countries.

"I'd like to congratulate Croatin Telecom on this important recognition of the company's contribution and I'm delighted to see the success that comes as a result of a vision and business model that truly transforms the market, therefore, I look forward to continued successful partnerships and future projects," said T. Skoko.

Saša Kramar, a member of Croatian Telecom's management board and chief operating officer, stated that all companies operating in Croatia, regardless of their size, can benefit from this cooperation. "The digitalisation of business is imperative today, and Croatian Telecom and Combis make all the benefits of digitisation available owing to their services, and thus helps them to be more successful in their business in Croatia and out in the world," noted Kramar.

In the meantime, Croatian Telecom has announced a new vision of its business, with which it wants to position itself as a digital company rather than as a primary telecom.

Croatian Telecom's new CEO, Kostas Nebis, pointed out the fact that the company is committed to digitising Croatia. "Here at Croatian Telecom, we want to build a world of better opportunities, bringing everyone the benefits of digitisation so that everyone can take advantage of the best that life has to offer them," concluded Nebis.
