TELSCOM is active in European Union projects since 1987 and has built up a wide network of clients and partners. They have participated in 6INIT, 6WINIT projects, which laid further foundation for projects like NGNLAB, Euro6IX, Eurv6 showcase etc. where Telscom is a major partner. Their expertise varies from IPv6 protocols, deploying QoS (IntServ and DiffServ), security and scalable networks for their clients. The know-how from these activities was  extended to the SecurIST project, which TELSCOM was a partner.
