Marijana later advanced to the position of Director of the Corporate Sales Department, and then the whole Corporate Sales Sector.

"The role of Hrvatski Telekom, as a key provider of digitalization services and a reliable ICT partner is especially evident today. The unique integrative solutions that we develop and implement in private and public companies enable them to develop their business and become more competitive in the market. At the same time our smart city solutions implemented in more than 60 towns and municipalities across Croatia enable digital advancement and higher quality of life for their citizens," stated  Bačić.

After years of working abroad for Stonepath Group and Solomon Smith Barney in the USA and Sweden, Jerko Dumanić joined Hrvatski Telekom in 2002, and has since held several management positions within the Group. These included the function of a Management Board member in Iskon Intranet and HT Eronet. For the last six years, he has been the Business Marketing Director with Hrvatski Telekom.

"Hrvatski Telekom actively supports and assists the digitalization of VSE/SMEs, large companies and public institutions. By this we help increase not only their productivity, but also the satisfaction of their customers, users and citizens. Digitalization is not a trend, but a necessity that offers many new opportunities. It connects, improves internal processes, generates savings and greater efficiencies, and improves the competitiveness of all companies, large and small. That is what HT provides to its customers," said Dumanić.
