Future Prospects | <strong>50</strong> <strong>Year</strong>s of R&M | 2014<br />

39<br />

Fit for the Future:<br />

Increased<br />

Growth Abroad<br />

and Closer Focus<br />

on Customers<br />

R&M is already one of the top three players in the<br />

target markets, but won’t settle for that. CEO Michel Riva<br />

talks about future prospects and opportunities.<br />

novative cabling solutions to meet the<br />

challenges of tomorrow – often surpassing<br />

the standards currently in place.<br />

As part of this overall objective, CEO<br />

Michel Riva considers it necessary to<br />

continue down the path of globalization.<br />

Now that the company has established<br />

itself, a sustained international outlook<br />

is necessary to move R&M into the<br />

next phase of its development.<br />

Increased customer focus and<br />

growth above the market average<br />

We also need to step up our pursuit<br />

of a decentralized business structure.<br />

While the headquarters is responsible<br />

for defining the corporate strategy, the<br />

task of implementing it is the responsibility<br />

of line managers – more and<br />

more of whom are now being appointed<br />

abroad. The relocation of development<br />

projects to Bulgaria and the establishment<br />

of assembly and engineering<br />

platforms in Dubai and India clearly<br />

demonstrate the direction in which we<br />

are headed.<br />

Our activities in the Public Network,<br />

Data Center, and Office Cabling sectors<br />

will continue in future, our customer<br />

focus will continue to sharpen, and our<br />

top priority will still be to achieve growth<br />

above the market average. n<br />
