At Ericsson, diversity programs and initiatives are grouped in three primary areas across the company.

Younger target groups: Ericsson invests heavily in R&D and has one of the industry's most comprehensive intellectual property portfolios, which reflects our ongoing commitment to technological leadership and innovation. In order to broaden our recruitment base, we recognize the importance of developing greater interest in information technology among young people as well as encouraging younger people to study in the ICT field with several activities.

Undergraduates and graduates: Ericsson actively collaborates with colleges and universities to equip students with the knowledge and necessary skills to succeed in this competitive industry. Our efforts to develop a diverse technology workforce include, among other efforts, awarding scholarships as well as running internship and accelerated management programs.

Development: We believe in every employee’s ambition to succeed and invest in our people so they can reach their highest potential. At Ericsson, employees are responsible for their own career and professional development. By providing equal learning opportunities, we strive to develop an inclusive environment in which all employees can reach their greatest professional potential in line with our business requirements.
