Vodafone Czech Republic

In September 1999, an evaluation of the tender for the third license to operate telecommunications services in the GSM 1800 MHz band was conducted.

It included a clause to run the network within three months:[6] Český Mobil agrees to commence the provision of mobile telecommunications services and operation of telecommunications equipment within 3 months from the granting of credentials to cover approximately 37% of the population, assuming the availability of technical interconnection with SPT TELECOM, a.s.

The original plan was to launch the network by Christmas 1999, but was dismissed from the mouth of the company's spokesperson about two months after signing the contract (November 1999)[7] that the network would be operational by the deadline specified in the contract with the Ministry of Transport and Communications - the 8th of January 2000, but only for pilot testing.

In 2007, Vodafone OneNet was launched offering companies converged mobile and fixed voice and data services including Internet access.

As the first operator to do so, it started to offer services for free in exchange for viewing the ad on your mobile phone.

The year 2013 was marked by unlimited tariffs, the test LTE network and cooperation with virtual operators.

[14] More than two-thirds of its telecommunications network is supplied from renewable sources (hydropower, biogas plants, combustion of biomass, wind, solar) and the remaining 30% of energy consumption annually relies on 20,000 trees being planted in cooperation with the Agency for Nature Conservation and Landscape.

According to a number of different parameters (material production, transportation, energy consumption) Vodafone is granted the environmental assessment Eco-class.

Within the accelerator program Laboratory, the Vodafone Foundation helps implement ideas and projects, providing grants, regular meetings and mentoring and its successful graduates even have the opportunity to go abroad.
