The company also owns leading-edge digital platforms like Crave and TV services including Bell Fibe TV, Alt TV, Virgin TV, and Satellite TV, offering a full range of pricing and service options. The company kept Canada connected during COVID-19 and ensured that Canadians had full access to the most compelling news, sports, lifestyle, and entertainment content.

As Bell embraces new ways of working and invests in next-generation technology, the company is making it easier to do business with it at every level.
Operate with agility and cost efficiency
In a fast-changing and highly competitive Canadian communications industry, Bell has managed to grow in a more nimble and efficient way than the other communications companies. Every day, Canada’s largest communications company is finding new ways to simplify and enhance how it builds networks, creates compelling content, and delivers top-notch service. The company appears focused on streamlining Bell’s systems and reducing costs to enable long-term growth, innovation and a better customer experience.
Engage and invest in employees
The Bell team is more than 50,000 strong and works in centres, large and small, in every province and territory to serve customers and communities. When faced with the challenges of the global health crisis, the Bell team responded with dedication, agility and innovation to keep Bell’s customers safe and connected while also delivering on the company’s strategy in the marketplace.
